Neither NIC is connected to any equipment, e.g. switch, hub, or 
computer (status: no carrier). Make sure you can use a straight 
network cable, else you'll need to get a couple of cross wired network 
cables and use those instead.

Next, confirm the sysctl net.inet.ip.forwarding is set to 1 by
running the sysctl net.inet.ip.forwarding command.

If not, you can set the sysctl to 1 by running the sysctl 
net.inet.ip.forwarding=1 command, and you probably should inspect the 
/etc/rc.conf file one more time.

Once you connect the computer to the two networks, the IPv4 routing 
should work. If not, come back.
