Add the ports, but do not create an interface on the RSFC. These ports will
then have the outside router as their default route. On the outside router
you will have a route pointing to the PIX's outside interface for your
public address space. On the RSFC since everything is Connected, you will
bypass the PIX to get to your outside addresses. Therefore, we do not want
the outside network to appear on the RSFC. If you really must do this, then
it is time to look at Policy-Based Routing.
