Re: Inconsistent address and mask

The /16 mask for 23.23.0.0 covers usable hosts 23.23.0.1 through
23.23.255.254 where 23.23.0.0 is the network address and 23.23.255.255
being the broadcast.

The initial problem of
Ip route 23.23.23.0 255.255.0.0 12.12.12.2 getting the inconsistent error
mesage is due to that being a host in the /16 range. If the intent was to
route the network, the statement should be corrected as previously noted.
Ip route 23.23.0.0 255.255.0.0 12.12.12.2

Or if the intent was to route to the host address in the original static
route stement, it would need to be corrected to a 32 bit host route
Ip route 23.23.23.0 255.255.255.255 12.12.12.2.

In this scenario however, the solution is more likely trying to route the
network and the first entry of

Ip route 23.23.0.0 255.255.0.0 12.12.12.2

Will resolve the error message issue.

Or as previously noted, if the issue is the /24 network of 23.23.23.0 then
the stsic route statement has to be

Ip route 23.23.23.0 255.255.255.0 12.12.12.2
