How to LINUX machine as a router.

Hi guys, could you help me to configure my Linux machine to behave as router?

Scenario:
Machine OS: CentOS 6.2
NIC: eth0: configured with a static IP by the ISP.
eth1: not configured yet

Virtual Machine: CentOS 5.7
NIC : eth0 : not configured yet
eth1 : not configured yet

Plan is to configure the virtual machine (CentOS 5.7) as a router. After that this machine will also be the dhcp server as well. DHCP is not an issue but the configuration of router you can say.

Please help me in the configuration.

With Best Regards...

rrenumd

RRENUMD(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 						RRENUMD(8)

NAME

     rrenumd -- router renumbering daemon

SYNOPSIS

     rrenumd [-df] [-c conf_file | -s]

DESCRIPTION

     The rrenumd utility transmits router renumbering request packets, to renumber the routers in the site network.

     On KAME-based systems, router renumbering requests are received and processed by rtadvd(8).  For other systems, refer to relevant documents.

     The program will daemonize itself on invocation.  It reads configuration information from standard input if -s is specified, or from
     conf_file if -c conf_file is specified.

     The contents of configuration information are described in rrenumd.conf(5).

     After successful configuration, rrenumd sends router renumbering messages periodically to configured destinations.  Messages contain prefixes
     configured to be renumbered.

     -d      Debug mode.

     -f      Foreground mode.  Do not become daemon.

     -s      Script mode.  Configuration information is obtained from standard input.

     -c conf_file
	     Specify a configuration file where configuration information is kept.

EXIT STATUS

     The program exits with 0 on success, and non-zero on failures.
