You should add the netmask for the first entry in an otherwise undefined
network.

For example, I have 4 aliases:

10.50.1.5
10.50.1.6
10.60.1.7
10.60.1.8

My physical interface has 10.50.1.4/24 assigned, so there is no need to
assign a netmask for the two 10.50.1.0/24 addresses. (the gnatbox
automaticly adds a /32 netmask, or 255.255.255.255)

10.60.1.0/24 is not defined elsewhere, though, and the NAT>Aliases entry
is the first definition for the network.  I should define a netmask in the
entry, then, using:

10.61.1.7/24

10.60.1.8 will not need a netmask.


Done this way, the warning you mention will go away, and local-network
routing will be handled properly.
