14.1.0.0 with the subnetmask 255.255.255.0 is no valid host address! It is the address of the subnet. Try using another IP for your host (like 14.1.0.1)

14.1.0.0/24 (/24 -> netmask = 255.255.255.0) is a "Network ID". it is a reserved address, and cannot be used for hosts. Valid addresses go from 14.1.0.1-14.1.0.254 (.255 is reserved as a broadcast address).
