The error message is a bit strange, but the issue is that when using the
hierarchical naming scheme (highly recommended!), each element in the
chain of names must conform to the naming rules of AS-SET.

If you add 'AS-' as prefix to 'DIRECT', I suspect the robot will accept
it.

AS-SET:        AS201376:AS-MEMBERS:AS-DIRECT
