Ok so here is what I am working with. 3 2003 servers all having addresses 10.0.0.x, 10.0.0.y, and 10.0.0.z. All 3 servers have 2 nics in them and need to also access a different network. They are set ip addresses 10.34.88.a, 10.34.88.b 10.34.88.c. The 3 servers need to talk to the 10.34.88.0 network and have a constant connection, they also need to talk to the 10.0.0.0 network and the 10.4.0.0 network.

So in a nut shell the server is on the 10.0.0.0 network and needs to have a second nic with the address 10.38.88.0 and the 10.0.0.0 side needs to also talk to the 10.4.0.0 network. We tried putting a default gateway on the 10.34.88.0 side but then anyone on the 10.4.0.0 network could not access the server on the 10.0.0.0 network. If we put a default gateway on the 10.0.0.0 network then the 10.34.88.0 network could not access it.

Anyone Please help me.

If you are attempting to do this with a single router, then it must have physical access to all of the networks before it can route from one network to another. It would have an address in each of the networks and a route table that defines each of the three routes.

Each address that the router uses within each network would be the gateway address for that network.

If the networks are separated by distance and a physical connection can not be made with one router, then a router will have to be placed into each network and a connection established between routers.

Yes they are all separated by a wan. The 10.4.0.0 network is p-t-p with the 10.0.0.0 network and the 10.34.88.0 network has its own router connected to it that we do not have control over.

It goes user computer > Ptp > Router > Switch > Server > Switch > router

You can set up your 10.4.0.0 and your 10.0.0.0 routers so that they are aware of the 10.34.88.0 network (and each other) but unless the 10.34.88.0 router can include a route to your other two networks then it will be a one way ticket. You will be able to send packets to the 10.34.88.0 but you will not be able to receive packets. The return route must be defined as well.
