This error is raised when (while using hierarchical rtg) the address used 
is larger than the size of the address field. Note hier addresses use 
different number of bits to define the node and port address fields.
The function that checks this is str2addr. see ~ns/routing/address.cc 
and tcl/lib/ns-address.tcl for details.
It seems like your script might be doing something strange. Iwould 
step thru the debugger for a quick solution.
