for a cheap solution put 3 NICs on the server and enable routing or install a routing software on it . Second cheaper solution . Use a low level PC with 3 NICs . Load a firewall and routing software on it . That should help you . Third and expensive solution is buy a professional router with 3 eth ports .

You need a router to connect one network to another. Either use a hardware router (Cisco, 3COM) or use a software router (Using multiple NIC's and configure it in the OS)

Set up teh servers on different VLANs and the route between VLANs if needed. That is what we do on our Extreme switches.
