You would setup another vmnet interface that bridges with the second physical nic. I use "vmnet2" for this in a lot of my setups. Then when you setup a vm, if you use vmnet0 (aka "bridged" default) it will bridge to your primary/internal network, if you use vmnet2 (under custom) it will bridge to your second "guest" network that you want it in. -Harry
