Quick interface question

enum
I have 2 Ip Adresses coming from my ISP assigned by DHCP.  I have my cable modem, eth0, and eth1 connected to a belkin switch.  Both devices receive ip addresses.  Although when both are enabled I am unable to access network resources of any kind.  Beloiw is a rough diagram.

btw, I forgot to mention that I find it a bit funny that I am unable to assing a gateway for each interface. 

Code:

     ----           ---

     |  |-----------| |  SWitch

     ----           ---

     Modem           |

                     |

                     |

                     |

                   Astaro

                ------------

                |          |

                |          |

              eth0        eth1

           66.69.*.*    66.69.*.*


Any help is greatly appreciated as I would like to use the ip on eth1 for server access.

    You can (should) do this with one External NIC, and create a virtual nic for the second address.

    Then, use SNAT to forward traffic as you wish.

    Okay.. So I tried your suggestion using a VLAN and setting it to DHCP.. I get the following when trying to bring up the interface.

    Code:

     	You cannot set up an interface of this type on the selected hardware, since it cannot coexist with another active device on the same hardware.
