Freeradius accounting 4294967296

[Julio Edel Salas Díaz]

Ok, one question, can you tell me what the common error is when a Netgear WAX6100 AP sends that value (4294967296) in the "accounting"? That doesn't happen to me with all users and devices.

  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.
