Hi,

My understanding is that an ISP provides you with a primary IP and an 
additional block if requested subnetted differently to the primary block, but 
makes the necessary adjusts on their equipement to forward all traffic for the 
block to your primary IP.  This also you to NAT at the edge router, or use two 
of the public IPs for the router' internal interface and the firewall's 
external interface and NAT at the firewall, but this wastes any IP.  Is this 
correct, have I missed anything, and what are the benefits if any of NATting at 
the Firewall.  Thanks
