Two gateways?


My computer has 2 network cards.

eth0 is grabbing a public IP from comcast
eth1 is statically set to 192.168.1.15 for my internal network

My computer is not acting as a router. It is merely connected to both the internal network and to the comcast network.

I would like to be able to administer the router in the 192 IP range...and I would like to be able to connect to computers in the 192 range as well.

I guess I don't understand how this works.....what do I put as the gateway for eth1? When I type in 192.168.1.1, I would like this traffic to through the wireless router that I am connected to. Whenever I give some public address, I would like it ot go through eth0.

Thanks.


config_eth0=( "dhcp" )

#config_eth1=( "192.168.1.16 netmask 255.255.255.0" )
#routes_eth1=( "default gw 192.168.1.1" )

You don't need to specify a gateway for local traffic. By definition you can only have one default route.
