With xyz periodic boundary conditions, the ions will eventually appear as if they are diffusing into the extracellular compartment from above as they diffuse down the -Z and leave the original box, anyway. So unless you actually need them *only interacting* with the intracellular side by using walls, it doesn't really matter where the ions are placed as long as they aren't stuck somewhere illogical (e.g. inside the bilayer)
