Are you saying that the xxx octets are the same (i.e. A.B.C.1 and A.B.C.2)?

If so, then you are trying to tell the router that its Ethernet interface 
and its Serial interface are connected to the same network, which is almost 
certianly not the case... Why would you want to do such a thing?

Since Howard didn't say it, I will:

What is the problem that you are trying to solve by forcing the router to 
believe that these interfaces are on the same network?
