Ok we have a cisco 1841 router with 4 fast ethernet ports. &nbsp;We have a flex t1 that everything come and goes through. &nbsp;We want to add a cable modem and attach it to one of the other ethenet ports available and have all vpn traffics,and all internet traffics come and go through that port. &nbsp;I have not been able to figure this out. &nbsp;I know the easy way is to purchase another router and make all computer except mail servers gateway to point to the new router. &nbsp;Just seems I should be able to accomplish this with a 4 port router..

routing traffice through one port and exit through another port

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.
