My Team is setting up a demonstration forest with our main dc handling AD. The server has one either net port. I want our clients to have internet access thru the server so we can apply firewall rules and permissions to them. So the way we currently Have it set up is a router to switch 1. Off switch 1 is Main DC and feed to switch 2 which has exchange server, three virtual servers (one physical machine) and 5 clients. So far i have the main dc connecting to the internet. The Exchange server, and clients can communicate to the DC.The one debate were having is that If I use the gateway as the server ipv4 address(192.168.1.11) it wont connect to the Internet. If I use the router IP (192.168.1.1) it will connect.The clients use ipv4 and follow the following and all have static IPS (ex: IP adress 192.168.1.110 subnet 255.255.255.0 and gateway I say 192.168.1.11 they say 192.168.1.1 prefered dns 192.168.1.11). Some of my team seems to think we need two nic's one in and one out from the DC. I feel other wise. I have no idea where to start to achieve my end goal. We are limited to what the college provides, so purchasing stand alone firewalls or other nic's are out of the question. I honestly don't know if we need to install something like DHCP. (all we have done to the dc so far is AD basic setup, a few users, and few group policies Any Ideas where to start would be greatly appreciated as we are still learning (we all are trying to earn a networking degree).Correct me if I am wrong I think it is totally possible. I tried to include as much information as possible. Thanks
