Lets see, your requirements are: a) packets within a chasis subnet shall stay within a chasis subnet b) the outside (of the chasis) world shall never discover whats inside the chasis (example ARPs will fail to resolve etc)
Did i miss anything else?
Yes.
c) The chassis components must interact properly with other external equipment using public or RFC1918 addresses.
So while yes, it may be possible to use RFC1918 addresses, but only if the network administrator connecting the chassi first enters a RFC1918 network he has reserved for "equipment internal" use into the chassis configuration to ensure the internal addressing within the chassis does not conflict with the addressing used on his private network. This even if these addresses is never seen anywhere outside of the chassis (except possibly diagnostics channels into the chassis).
