Thanks for the info -- your instructions were perfect and exact order 
needed.

I didn't do everything in the same order as you specified, partly 
because I don't know IPCop and I was working from memory of your email.  
As a result, I lost about 5 minutes of uptime -- not bad but not ideal.

One step that needs to be added after adding an alias to the red 
interface is to add redundancy to the port forwarding.  All the port 
forwarding from the default ip address needs to be replicated with the 
actual old default ip address.  All the port forwarding from the old 
alias ip address needs to be replicated with the new alias ip address.  
Now you have redundancy for both the old and new static ips.
