I'm not quite clear on what you are asking. If you mean that any connection originating on the internal side is returned through the LEAF router, yes, since the LEAF NAT makes the traffic appear to originate from it.
If you want traffic from the Internet to be routed to the LEAF router and beyond to another server then it appears that some configuration has to be done. I didn't have to set that up so I looked at the manual. It appears that it is possible to set up port forwarding. The screen in the documentation shows forwarding for specific ports and a default entry. (If you would like, I can send you the user manual PDF off list.) Unless you are doing something special, you may not even need the LEAF router. the SP642R can handle DHCP, NAT, and port forwarding. My system is also doing internal DNS and internal email (using fetchmail to retrieve email sent from the outside to an ISP).
