simple routing ques?

Situation: we have an irx-211. The t1 port at S1 connects to our
upstream ISP. This works just fine. We want to add a WAN connection on
another t1 at S2.

What I *think* I need to do is assign an IP number to the S2 interface
and the interface on the other end of the t1, both within the same
subnet. Then I want to route a class C through that interface. This
doesn't seem to work.

S2 is configured thusly:

----------------------- Current Status - Port S2
---------------------------
Status: CONNECTING
Input: 3187640 Abort Errors: 0
Output: 2823322 CRC Errors: 0
Pending: 0 Overrun Errors: 0
TX Errors: 0 Frame Errors: 0

Active Configuration Default Configuration
-------------------- ---------------------
Port Type: Netwrk Netwrk (Hardwired)
Line Speed: Ext Clock Ext Clock
Modem Control: off off
Remote Host: 206.199.202.18 206.199.202.18
Local Address: 206.199.202.17 206.199.202.17
Netmask: 255.255.255.240 255.255.255.240
Interface: Unassigned (PPP,Quiet) (PPP,Quiet)
Mtu: 1500 0

But when I traceroute 206.199.202.17, it wants to go to my default
route;
the router doesn't answer for it. When I try to route the new class C:

irx1> add route 206.199.203.0 206.199.202.18 1
Warning: Gateway is not directly connected - marking as Unknown
New route entry successfully added

A traceroute to anything within the new class C likewise wants to go to
my default route.

I'm sure I've overlooked something trivially simple here... Can anyone
tell me where I'm going wrong?
