You don't want to UPDATE the table, since as you have seen it will cause an
error. The only row you can change in the table being modified in a trigger
is the active row itself, and you must change its values by SETting
NEW.fieldname:
IF NEW.NASPortID = 21 THEN
SET NEW.AcctInputOctets=(0 - NEW.AcctInputOctets);
SET NEW.AcctOutputOctets=(0 - NEW.AcctOutputOctets):
END IF;
