i think a better way would be to:
1.) use private addresses in your internal network and do masquerading on
the firewall.
or if for some reason you can't:
2.) subnet your current class c in say 4 subnets:
194.130.69.0/26 - between router and firewall
194.130.69.64/26 - for a DMZ
194.130.69.128/26 - internal net
194.130.69.192/26 - internal net
then all you have to say on your cisco is:
ip route 194.13.69.64 255.255.255.192 194.130.69.1
ip route 194.13.69.128 255.255.255.192 194.130.69.1
ip route 194.13.69.192 255.255.255.192 194.130.69.1
which is far more administration friendly.
