Yeah, they seem to apply to the default gateway on the director, which I
don't think is an issue in my case.

Because my grand plan is to migrate a web site that's already running on
a separate director from one set of IPs to another. I'd like the web
site to be able to respond on both sets of IPs, change the DNS to point
to the new set, and not have to worry if the old IPs get cached for days
or weeks. The old IP range is on a 100MBps connection, and the new one
is gigabit, and my ISP won't let me comingle them on a single switch.
On top of that, all my existing director machines only have two NICs, so
I can't plug the old external network, the new external network, and the
local network into a single machine.

No, because they might need to use the old IP range on a different
director.

Ok. Well, I was thinking I might be missing something and that it might
be done easily. At this point, it sounds like it would be easier to
just use a separate machine as a firewall, or set up new director
machines with three NICs, so I'll pursue that route.
Thanks for the help,
