Are you saying you're trying to assign the IP address 10.4.0.0/16 as a
unicast address to an interface? Then you'll run into way more problems
than the one you're describing. You can't have host part of the IP
address consisting of all zeros (or all ones). Just don't do it. Choose
a valid IP address instead.
