(usr-tc) add ip defaultroute command

6 Mar 2001

      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.

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
