It seems your question is difficult to answer without first asking another question. But let us try this:

It seems you wanted to trap all packets and make IP 172.X.X.X your gateway, so try it this way:

Code:

~$ /sbin/route add -net 0.0.0.0 netmask 0.0.0.0 gw 172.X.X.1 p3p1

Then check if you have made it a gateway:

Code:

~$ /sbin/route -n

If it doesn't work come back and give us more about what you have and what you wanted to happen.

Hope that helps.
