Basically, yes 2+ interfaces are required. The devel's had talked about installing a dummy interface to always allow firewall and dnsmasq features, even with single interface boards, but I'm not aware of any progress on that front. A possible option (thought I haven't tried it) would be to enable a vlan on your single ethernet interface, ie. use eth0 (untagged) for the external interface and eth0.10 (tagged) for the internal interface, BUT be very careful that your upstream switch is properly configured, so as the VLAN 10 is ignored (or accepted to other VLAN 10 ports). vlans are cool.
