Newbie in need of guidance. Warning: minimal knowledge!

I have the PIA VPN service running on a windows 7 machine with one NIC. My LAN is visible, and everything appears to be working well; I am able to use the VPN service (torrent download), as well as access my local network to transfer files that were downloaded via the VPN. I am replacing that machine with a newer server that will have 2 NIC's. My questions are:

1: How should I set up my new machine to ensure that access to my LAN is NOT possible through the VPN. In other words, I want to make sure my LAN is secure from intrusion via the VPN service.
2. How do I ensure that the server is not going to access the internet via the LAN NIC, but instead ONLY connect to the internet via the VPN NIC? So, one NIC for LAN, and one NIC for VPN.
3. How can I test to ensure that my desired setup is indeed working as described above? Is all of my browsing activity via the VPN untraceable from my ISP? Is the server only connecting to the internet via the VPN NIC?

Thank you for any help!

  • Patrick, I don't understand how this is a question about WebAdmin or the UTM.
