One can be a firewall the other two behind it serving up the data to local and Internet users on two local networks. Of course this might be for some kind of backup Internet connection or something but you will have to help us out on that. Sounds fun either way..

Hi all, I am about to move our 2 servers, and add a third, to a new colo. On each of the three servers there will be two NICs. 1 NIC on each box is to be dedicated to the internet. 1 1 NIC in each box is to be dedicated to local. (192.168.0.1-3). Can I plug all three NIC s into one switch (the switch will also be connectoed to our providered swtch, for Inet connection) and expect both networks to work OK? -Grant Grant W.
