Thank you Alan, for answering.

In the Cisco documentation about the 1200, they show the list of 
attributes the Aironet 1200 can include in an accounting package:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/wireless/ps430/products_configuration_guide_chapter09186a008010f63d.html#wp1097698

Here is an extract:

* Attributes Sent in Accounting-Request (update) Packets
1 User-Name
4 NAS-IP-Address
[...]
42 Acct-Input-Octets
43 Acct-Output-Octets
[...]
47 Acct-Input-Packets
48 Acct-Output-Packets

* Attributes Sent in Accounting-Request (stop) Packets
1 User-Name
4 NAS-IP-Address
[...]
42 Acct-Input-Octets
43 Acct-Output-Octets
[...]
47 Acct-Input-Packets
48 Acct-Output-Packets

So yes, this NAS is supposed to report those pieces of information. At 
least, thats what Cisco says. But the fact is it isn't doing so.

You think the NAS won't send those attributes. I have no experience with 
NASs, so I'd appreciate a lot if you could explain me why you think so. 
I don't want to spend time trying to do something that isn't possible. 
Thank you in advance, again.
