Bad mask /XX for address X.X.X.X in Router Cisco (Packet Tracer), VLSM

Im trying to do a practice in packet tracer. Im configuring a 1841 Router (but the problem happens in all routers).

When I try to set an IP address with a mask different of the by defect mask for this Class of address (using VLSM), the router said me that the mask is incorrect (Bad mask) and don’t change anything.

I will implement a classless routing protocol (RIPv2).

Here the line of commands:

Router>
Router>enable
Router#config termin
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Router(config)#int Ser0/0/0
Router(config-if)#ip address 172.16.199.228 255.255.255.252
Bad mask /30 for address 172.16.199.228                 <--- HERE
Router(config-if)#

How can I set an IP address with a no by defect mask?

Thanks you!

172.16.199.228 is the network address. You need to use 172.16.199.229 or .230
