2 network connections

Actual

w2k domain D

Location A
subnet a.b.c.d
1st internet connection (fast) -gateway1-firewall, router, VPN, SMTP and
proxy (Borderware machine) connected to LAN switch
pdc w2k domain D - dns, DHCP with scope: DNS, WINS, GW 1
servers: w2k + winsrv2003
workstations: w2k, xp
laptops: xp
workstations + laptops -> deafault gw1 from DHCP

2nd internet connection(very fast) - gateway2 - firewall, router (D-Link
DI-604) connected to LAN switch

Location B
subnet a.b.x.y
3rd internet connection - gateway3-firewall, VPN, SMTP and proxy (Borderware
machine) connected to LAN switch
adc w2k domain D - dns, DHCP with scope: DNS, WINS, GW 3
servers: w2k
workstations: w2k, xp
laptops: xp
workstations + laptops -> deafault gw3 from DHCP

Location A + Location B
VPN GW <-> GW3 (Borderware + SSH client)

Wanted

Only in location A

2nd internet connection to be used for location A for HTTP, FTP and POP

All the servers have static GW1
I changed the scope from GW 1 to GW2:
a) all wkst+laptops browse internet through gw2 (very fast everybody
happy)
b) LAN available on a.b.c.d
C) wkst+laptops cannot see anymore Location B, ping doesn't work,
NETBIOS doesn't work
d) wkst+laptops from location B cannot see anymore wkst+laptops Location
A (servers Location A -YES)

If I change GW-dhcp from GW2 to GW1 everything comes back to normal.

Any suggestion?

Borderware machine does not support a second internet connection.

Any help would be higly appreciated.

Thank you.

That is fine. That is one correct way to do it

GW2 needs a Static route added to its routing table that tells it where the
Location B is. It needs to know that the path for Location B is the GW1 and
not the Internet. Since Location B has only one GW (GW3) there should not
be anything to configure on that end.

If the above suggestion doesn't work then...
For this type of problem we need to know:
1. The "private side" IP#s of each Gateway (public IP# not needed).
2. The real IPsubnet(s) used
3. If there is a LAN router involved, where it is, how it is used
(This is all topology and mostly Layer3 information)

But we would not need to know:
1. Any computer's OS (unless you made a router out of a computer)
2. If there is a Domain
3. ..anything about DNS, DHCP, WINS
(Networks exist and function even without any computers on them, it only
takes routers, hub/switches, and cables)
