I am trying to change the default route for my USR Total Control chassie. So I enter the command like this add ip deFAULTROUTE gaTEWAY 208.201.224.230 and I get this message back ERROR - Specified gateway is not on a directly connected network. Now this address is on the exact same netowork as the box. Here is what show ip network shows. SHOW IP NETWORK ip SETTINGS: Interface: eth:1 Network Address: 208.201.224.181/C Frame Type: ETHERNET_II Status: ENABLED Reconfigure Needed: FALSE Mask: 255.255.255.0 Station: 208.201.224.181 Broadcast Algorithm: IETF Max Reassembly Size: 3464 WAN Type: N/A Remote IP Address: 0.0.0.0 IP Routing Protocols: RIPV2 OSPF IP Routing Metric: 1 RIP Interface Export Metric: 0 IP RIP Routing Policies: SEND_ROUTES SPLIT_HORIZON FLASH_UPDATE SEND_COMPAT RIPV1_RECEIVE RIPV2_RECEIVE IP RIP Authentication Key: Also the current default route is this nas24>> list ip defAULTROUTE CONFIGURED DEFAULT ROUTERS Address Mask Gateway Metric State 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 208.201.224.1 1 ENABLED What is weird is I deleted this route once and then tried to add the same exact default route and got the same error. I am assuming that I have entered the syntax incorrectly. Can someone clue me in here =) Thanks -Steve -- Steve Johnson - linuxnut@sonic.net Sonic.net, Inc.
