No - I just meant to not subnet that network - have the firewall netmask as
a /28. Sorry - my language wasn't clear.

If they need to be accessible from the outside then you need to put them in
the DMZ and NAT for them. If they're for internal users then you can just
put them in that LAN and let dynamic NAT take care of it.

That's just to underline the fact that you can't overlap those NAT ranges.
One range needs to be used for static mappings and another range needs to be
used for dynamic NAT for the client LAN - it's bad to have those ranges
intersecting.

What DMZ clients? You have static NAT mappings for everything in the DMZ
that needs to get to the outside world. If the DMZ boxes actually need to
initiate connections to the outside world then I would just harden them and
give them a full static IP NAT translation (ie don't just translate port 80
or 25 or whatever).

No worries.
