Use the accounting optional command to enable accounting to be optional.

Use the undo accounting optional command to disable accounting to be 
optional.

By default, accounting is not optional. By executing the accounting optional 
command, you can enable users to utilize the network resources even when no 
accounting server is available or the switch fails to communicate with the 
accounting server. Users are denied if you do not execute this command under the 
same circumstance. This command is used when you want the server to 
authenticate without charging.
