TCL as a router?
holiday42:
If the sole purpose if the pc will be to route from lan to lan, I would say use another distro designed for that purpose.
I had used coyotelinux (coyotelinux.com) some years ago with success.

You can use TC as a bridge, see bridge-utils.tcz.

Bridiging means interconnection of ethernet ports to form a LAN hub/switch. Ports in a bridge do not have own IP address, it is just a LAN switch.
First specify for what purpose you are intending the two ports system wise. Do you want to share a LAN connection (in such case you need NAT), etc.

Thanks for your help. I would like to access PCs from within one network from PCs of the second network without
changing IP addresses and adress distribution methods. (fixed and DHCP)
In that particular case a TCL 3.8.4 PC is connected to the internet via its eth0 (on DHCP range 192.168.0.XX) to the router and the internet.
eth1 of this same computer is set at 192.168.1.1 and connected to a hub which is connected to some other Pcs within this adress range (192.168.1.XX)
Now - what I would like to do is to connect from PCs within one network to PCs belonging to the other network.
bmarkus:
Use route command to route 192.168.1.xx to eth1. man page is a good starting point:
