Well, your description implied to me that you had a block of IP
addresses from your ISP and you wanted them to map one-to-one to
systems behind your firewall. Did I misunderstand?

You can specify more than one set of address translations, so you
could do (for example) an entire class C address space if you wanted. 
Were you thinking you could only do one?
