Can't use Softlayer's Portable Block (Statically Routed)

Hello,

* EDIT * This block is static not portable

I'm having problems assigning IPs from my /28 subnet (SL Static Block) to my VMs. I was able to get the VMs to ping the host and gateway but they can't reach the internet.


Host:


Code:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# device: eth1
auto  eth1
iface eth1 inet static
  address   0.0.0.146
  netmask   255.255.255.248
  gateway   0.0.0.141

auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet static
    address  0.0.0.94   (Using as gateway for VMs)
    netmask  255.255.255.240
    bridge_ports none
    bridge_stp off
    bridge_fd 0

     # Extra IPs
     #up ip route add 0.0.0.92/28 dev vmbr0 Network
     #up ip route add 0.0.0.93/28 dev vmbr0 Gateway    up ip route add 0.0.0.94/28 dev vmbr0
    up ip route add 0.0.0.95/28 dev vmbr0
    up ip route add 0.0.0.96/28 dev vmbr0
    up ip route add 0.0.0.97/28 dev vmbr0
    up ip route add 0.0.0.98/28 dev vmbr0
    up ip route add 0.0.0.99/28 dev vmbr0
    up ip route add 0.0.0.100/28 dev vmbr0
    up ip route add 0.0.0.101/28 dev vmbr0
    up ip route add 0.0.0.102/28 dev vmbr0
    up ip route add 0.0.0.103/28 dev vmbr0
    up ip route add 0.0.0.104/28 dev vmbr0
    up ip route add 0.0.0.105/28 dev vmbr0
    up ip route add 0.0.0.106/28 dev vmbr0
    # up ip route add 0.0.0.107/28 dev vmbr0 Broadcast


All IPs are supposed to be usable but I had to leave 3 out for the network, gateway and broadcast.


Guest:


Code:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet static
        address 0.0.0.95
        netmask 255.255.255.240
        network 0.0.0.92
        broadcast 0.0.0.107
        gateway 0.0.0.94


I am also able to ping the VM from the host:

Code:
# ping 0.0.0.95
PING 0.0.0.95 (0.0.0.95) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 0.0.0.95: icmp_ seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.119 ms
64 bytes from 0.0.0.95: icmp_ seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.126 ms
64 bytes from 0.0.0.95: icmp_ seq=3 ttl=64 time=0.102 ms

Thanks
