How to web filtering via two network cards?

Question

I have Installed Server 2008 and two network cards
on my pc. One LAN card for clients access and one for internet router. I need to share internet connection to my client computers with
web filtering. So how to do that? I need to block some sites to client access.

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to use the WS 2008 to share Internet connection and provide web filtering function for internal clients.
Internal clients –(NIC1) WS 2008(NIC2) – Internet router – Internet network
Manually assign IP address, default gateway, DNS server, etc. on NIC2. Manually assign IP address, DNS server, etc. on NIC1.
Install Network Policy and Access Services – Routing and Remote Access Services. Detailed steps reference:

Then open Routing and Remote Access and start configuration. Enable NAT on NIC2 to transfer IP address. Detailed steps reference:

Windows Server itself does not support web-based filter, third-party tools with application-layer firewall might be needed to realize this function. Configure WS as a router, it supports IP packet filtering, which specifies which type of traffic is allowed
into and out of the router. Reference：
