To be clear, they are both on the 192.168.1/24 subnet. Ocicat's reply contained a typo.
  • In TCP/IP networking, "routing" forwards packets between different subnets.
  • Except for specialized NICs such as carp(4), having two NICs on the same subnet is not supported -- if you have two NICs on the same subnet, it usually means there is usually an error in configuration, or an error in network design.
You will also need a sysctl set to forward packets, per FAQ 6.2.7.
