Cannot add F5 net route

Hello! I am scratching my head because I can't see why this static route is not being added to the config. The "x" is replaced with a usable 1-254 IP. Existing config: net self INT-350_NET1_PR...

Thanks for the comment. Yes, I tried it via the GUI, CLI, & tmsh all with the same message.

 

I believe because the self IP is on the subnet it is suggesting not to force to add a route since the upstream Gateway will be will automatically be sending ARP replies for the subnet.

 

You could probably set the self IP's to a /32 mask and then set the route, but not sure that is appropriate either.

 

I think I'm good, I apparently didn't get to my coffee before I posted this question ;)
