For machines on my 133.27.179.224 network, I specify 133.27.179.225 as the router (the ip address for eth1 of my linux router). I am not trying to specify a router on a different network. Packets now successfully travel to and from the 133.27.16.0 network via my router, but my router will not forward them to the gateway router of the subnet: 133.27.16.1. Can I get this routing behavior by creating a static route from 133.27.179.224 to the gateway router 133.27.16.1 on the linux router?
