This worked for me, however I ran into an oddity.

I have the zProperties of Networks set to 16 and 29.  Entering the first
address above (10.254.254.1/30) was fine, but the second (10.254.254.2/30)
was automagically changed to /29.  Similar things happened to other
addresses.  I ended up trying to put them all as /29, but the first one is
stuck at /30.

I'm using 2.1.71 installed from source.
