Took me a while to get used to this do. The 'secondary' parameter has a 
different meaning in Foundry then it does in Cisco. On a Cisco device, 
'secondary' means that you want to put an additional IP on an interface. On a 
Foundry device, this is used to have more than 1 IP from the SAME subnet on the 
interface. If you want to add an IP from a different subnet on the Foundry 
device, you just add it without the secondary command. So, in your example, the 
command would be "ip address XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX 255.255.255.0".

Subject: [f-nsp] Secondary IP Address weirdness

Hello community,
This has got to be an hallucination :

telnet@er01-par01(config-vif-4)#ip address XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX 255.255.255.0 
secondary
IP/Port: Errno(12) Assign primary ip address on specified subnet first
Really !?! Any other way to configure secondary address but on a different 
subnet ?
Running MLXe boxes with 540b

Best regards.
