two defaul gateway?

Is it possible to have two defaul gateway?
my situation is:
4 nic
1 External (connected to adsl)
1 DMZ
1 LAN
1 for the connection with another adsl

I want that the dmz use the first external and the LAN use the second adsl.
Is it possible?

[/ QUOTE ]No.

In any routing table, on any TCPIP enabled machine, there can only be one (1) default gateway address. The default gateway address point to the IP address that all the outgoing packets that don't have their destination resolved by any other rule in the routing table, should be forwarded to.

VelvetFog is right, you cannot have two default gateways, but you can try V6 BETA, the feature you need is named "Policy Based Routing", good luck...

Also, you may want to check out the " . Multiple adsl line on external side" thread, which is a similar issue.
