  You don't fix it.  FreeRADIUS isn't magically adding values to accounting data.

  That value is there because the Accounting-Request packet says that the user has used more than a Gb of data.

  i.e. it's real data sent by the NAS.  FreeRADIUS is just recording it.

  If you think that the data is wrong, them find out why the NAS is sending the data.
