Indeed, so you should be asking Cisco not FreeRADIUS

Read RFC 2865.

Section 5.8... [paraphrase] Framed-IP-Address is primarily so RADIUS can 
tell the NAS which IP to give to the client, not the other way around.

Most NAS's not allocate an IP until authentication has succeeded. You may 
well be able to find the given IP from an accounting packet though. Use a 
DB to match things up.
