For a dual NIC BI server.

I'm getting the following warning. Is this normal, and do I need to continue by clicking "yes," or am I doing something wrong?

It is normal, and okay to select 'yes'. Sometimes, you can leave the default gateway entry blank for the NIC supporting the cams. My experience is that sometimes windows will not allow the entry to remain unpopulated.

I suggest clearing the value of the default gateway value on the network card support the cameras. If it does not allow you to do so, restore the value and answer yes to the prompt shown above

I did not get that setting it up and it sounds like you set it up to inadvertently give the cameras internet by bridging the two NIC.

Post screenshots of the settings of both NICs.
