What is an edge server? We see some references to them, but we never see a definition.

Use specific interface for outbound connections (Ubuntu 9.04)
I have two ethernet interfaces in my computer, which is running Ubuntu 9.04. Both interfaces sport static IPs, but use separate gateways. My /etc/network/interfaces file looks something like this:
auto eth0 eth1 iface eth0 inet static address 10.0.0.5 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 10.0.0.1 iface eth1 inet static address 192.168.2.5 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.2.1
I want to have all traffic going to the internet-at-large run through eth0, but it seems to want to go through eth1. Is there a way that I can channel my general outbound traffic through eth0 instead and only use eth1 for traffic to its subnet?
The answer should be persistent; that is to say, it should survive reboot without a superuser needing to run a command after restart.
EDIT: as requested, here is the output of my route -n command:
