You don't mention the subnet mask, but I'm going to assume that all of those IP addresses are in the same subnet. The CIP interface must have an IP address that is in the LAN subnet. The Linux machines need to have IP addresses that are in a different subnet unless you can persuade the CIP to forward packets for specific IP addresses across the claw interface.
