    From routing perspective it doesn't make sense to have
    2 default gateways. You use default gateway ONLY if
    you don't have more specific route for packet to be
    sent. what you wanna do is to set up one default
    gateway pointing to say Internet (specific next hop IP
    on first NIC) and one specific route pointing to a
    next hop via your second NIC card.
