ip accounting cisco 1801

[uhuFAT32x]

Hi,

I am trying to configure ip accounting on a Cisco 1801, it does show the command as in within show, but I am unable to configure it.

Does anybody has an idea why?

Command line:

router#show ip accounting ?
  access-violations  show access violations in accounting database
  checkpoint         The checkpointed IP accounting database
  output-packets     show output packets in accounting database
  |                  Output modifiers
  <cr>

router#conf t             
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
router(config)#interface fastEthernet 1
router(config-if)#ip ?
Interface IP configuration subcommands:
  address  Set the IP address of an interface
  ddns     Configure dynamic DNS
  dhcp     Configure DHCP parameters for this interface
  igmp     IGMP interface commands
  rsvp     RSVP Interface Commands
  vrf      VPN Routing/Forwarding parameters on the interface

Hi the interface has to be layer 3 have you got an ip address on it 1st before trying to implement accounting ?
