How to build two network cards on NetSight

Dear Sir,
My customer has two networks on different subnet need to management with NetSight.
So I build two lan cards on ESXi Server and implement to NetSight.

But I can't find the second lan card on NetSight....
Even I edit the /etc/network/interfaces for the second lan card - eth1,
it can not work..

Could you kindly help me how to build 2 lan cards on NetSight?

Thanks for your help.

One NIC has default gateway, and another has not.
With the routing concept, the no default gateway NIC should can search it's own network,
and other network will search by the NIC with default gateway.

This can work on general network.
So I think it should be work with NetSight too.

And the problem is I don't know how to make the second NIC work on NetSight (VM).

As far as I'm aware off you'd have only one IP address for Netsight.

But you'd have two NICs on the ESX connected to the same VM switch to have redundancy in case one NIC is down i.e. broken patch cable.
