Same gateway, different subnets

Hello,
I have 3 lan cards on same subnet, with same gateway.
Is it possible to create static route on specific lan card, and how?

Hi Davor,

NICs on the same subnet are *not* supported.
Simply because you cannot guarantee just *which* NIC incoming traffic will arrive. Routers/switches do *not* like to see traffic come from a NIC they did not send to.
So *even* IF you define outbound traffic does not insure "proper" operation.
Bottom line, there are NO guarantees as to "proper" routing in your case - you're pretty much on your own.

My 2 cents,
Jeff
