A couple things... The GATEWAY statement format changed in z/VM 5.2...the order you show below is the new format. The stack will complain (not nearly as loudly as it should) if you tried to use that format in 5.1...
"Ip network address" in your list is really "any IP address in the target subnet" The 5.1 parameters would be: Network Address First Hop Link Name MTU Subnet Mask (Old school VM format...ewww...) Subnet Value (ugh...I have to do math?)
