Static route gateway X.X.X.X is not directly connected via an interface
Hello,
When verifying bigip.conf file, an error is reported about a network route. But the error has no reason to be there. Here is the error:
&&&&&&&&&&&
load sys conf file /config/bigip.conf verify Validating system configuration...
. . Validating configuration... /config/bigip.conf 01070330:3: Static route gateway 10.10.99.254 is not directly connected via an interface. Unexpected Error: Validating configuration process failed.
&&&&&&&&&
When I then exit tmsh and look at my network configuration I see that 10.10.99.254 is on the same network as one of my interfaces.
netstat -rn

This configuration is up and running. I can even ping 10.10.99.254... I am just worried this error hides something more serious. fyi we run version BIG-IP 11.3.0 Build 3144.51 Engineering Hotfix HF8
thanking you in advance
