Well, I could not understand what you are trying... Is 10.1.0.2 located on 10.1.0.0/27 and acting as another nexthop router? If you want to split three subnets on a single wire into three subnets on three wires, simply configuring three /27 addresses to each interface on the router works. If you want to route a part of the traffic from specific addresses to a specific host, you can add a specific route for the address range. -- Hiroki
