Yes, that's the way. FW-1 will always use the ip you defined as ip
address for that cluster interface in smartdashboard independently of
what you defined as phisical address.

One way to bypass this is to define a secondary interface and define it
not to belong to cluster interfaces. This way each node will use the
phisical address defined.
