Thanks Ray for the very good suggestions. So far I have only one IP so I
have no experience with the multiple IPs. 

My answers are below

- They will upgrade tomorrow so I cannot tell exactly about the hard-ware
config. But I think I will still have a single cable modem. Then plug it in
a hub and I will have 2 IPs coming out from that hub. I am not sure if it
makes any sense. Anyway I will post the details once I have it.

- The ISP is SHAW (replacing Rogers @HOME). And with one IP as I have now,
they use DHCP.

>3. Which LEAF variant are you using? With what physical and logical
interfaces?

- I am using Charles Steinkuehler's Dachstein, CD 1.0.1, with 2 internal
networks (192.168.1 and 192.168.2)
  and a private DMZ (192.168.3)


>5. What do you mean by "control both of them"? How do you want to use the 2
>addresses?

- I would like to use the 1st IP to serve internal networks and second IP as
a public DMZ. Is that possible?


Thanks again.
