You'll have to add a static route on the router so it knows it can
reach the 10.0.0.0 subnet through PC3 (192.168.0.30).  If you have
a lot of traffic from PC1 or PC2 to PC4, you'll want to add static
routes to those hosts as well.  Otherwise there's an extra step
where PC1 would send to it's default route (the router), which
would forward the packet to PC3.  One less step if PC1 knows to
send directly to PC3 to reach PC4.
