	M0n0wall can bridge any "optional" (OPT) interfaces to the WAN
interface.  Though the web GUI insists on a WAN IP address, if you edit
the config file and take it out (leave the XML tags) m0n0wall does seem
to work OK without it.  You will of course lose the ability to ping, etc.,
out the WAN interface.
