        Assuming you've used private IPs in your example and actually have 
public IPs on both sides, what they've done is to route the entire subnet to 
you.  pfSense's WAN would use 10.0.12.56 and computers on the LAN could use the 
public IPs directly.  pfSense is what would do the routing between them.  
pfSense would use, say, 192.168.120.17 for its LAN IP and that would be the 
gateway on your computers.  So .18-.22 would be usable on your "LAN" side.
