Network config confusion

[Gilbert T. Gutierrez, Jr.]

The LAN NIC should not have a default Gateway.  The WAN NIC will have the
default gateway.  Your local computers will use the LAN NIC of this computer
as their default gateway.  By putting a second default gateway that does not
point to the Internet, will only cause your packets not to leave your local
net.

Ok so I have a server with 2 nics.
I am trying to set it up as a domain controler.
I have the first nic getting ip from isp via dhcp.
On the LAN side I have a router and 2 boxes.
How do I set the LAN side up? I am thinking that is nic0 (WANside) has ip
from isp.

nic1 (LAN side) say 192.168.0.2 should be set as this:
 ip: 192.168.0.2
netmask: 255.255.255.0
gw: 192.168.0.1

router address is 192.168.0.1
netmask: 255.255.255.0
gw: Either nic0 address or isp gateway(thinking ip address of nic0) ?

nic0 (wan)
ip: from isp
netmask: from isp
gw: from isp
