I got two PCs both with two NICs each.PC1 connects me to the company network using DHCP.PC2 connects me to an external T1.heres my configuration although I'm using one NIC without a real use for it.
PC1>NT4- NIC1=DHCP[172.18.10.*] uses 172.18.10.254 gateway
NIC2=172.18.10.2/static
PC2>win2000- NIC1=192.168.1.110[connects to T1 router]
NIC2=172.18.10.1/static
I can browse the net on PC1 with no problem.How ever when I want to browse the company intranet it cant find the address as it looks like it ONLY tries 172.18.10.1[manual gateway]even though I have entered bothe gateways seperately for the two nics .Simply I want NIC1 to use 172.18.10.254 as the gateway device and NIC2 to use 172.18.10.1.But when I do an ipconfig theres only ONE default gateway assigned[172.18.10.1] IS this a feature or a bug?
You can only have one default gateway because this is the gateway that is used when it doesn't know what gateway to goto. The secret to making this work is to use the route command to define what gateway to use for what subnet.
