You probably need to add them to your /etc/network/interfaces:
iface eth0 inet static
address 10.1.0.14
netmask 255.255.0.0
up route add -net 10.2.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0 gw 10.1.0.2
iface eth1 inet dhcp
...should, if I got the syntax right, bring up two network
interfaces. eth1 gets an address by DHCP (and probably a default
route as well); eth0 is on 10.1.0.0/16, but also has a route to
10.2.0.0/16 via 10.1.0.2.

Well, it's very specific to your distribution. I'd have absolutely no
idea how to do this in Red Hat, whereas the 'route' command is pretty
generic.
