Error Message
%AT-4-NETINVALID: [chars]: AppleTalk node down; conflicts with active
internet

Explanation    The configuration specified for the interface conflicts
with the active AppleTalk internetwork. For
example, a cable range might be configured that overlaps an existing
route but does not match the entry exactly.

Recommended Action    Use the appletalk cable-range command to
reconfigure the interface so that there are no conflicts
with the existing AppleTalk network, or take any other actions necessary
to resolve the conflict. AppleTalk will
periodically attempt to restart the interface.

What cable range are you trying to add and to what interface?
