Warning: Start and End addresses overlap with broadcast address.

I've just reconfigured my pix 515e.

When I assign a global address, I get an error "Warning: Start and End addresses overlap with broadcast address."

Not sure what it means... Is it saying the address assigned to the WAN is a broadcast address for the network?

pix(config)# ip address outside 10.10.102.23 255.255.255.0

pix(config)# ip address inside 10.16.1.1 255.255.255.0

pix(config)# ip address dmz 10.31.1.1 255.255.255.0

pix(config)# global (outside) 1 interface

Warning: Start and End addresses overlap with broadcast address.

outside interface address added to PAT pool

And upon reload, I get this message, "Error: can not add name attributeType" Anyone know what this means?

Thanks.

Hi,

could you post the config ( make sure you remove the sensitive info).

Hi,

Your config looks OK. I suspect the error might be a bug related whihc does not surprise me because you current OS level is very old. I suggest you upgrading to the latest 6.X version .. PIX OS version 6.3(5)

I hope it helps .. please rate helpful posts
