yes, they must be pulled from DHCP, and the range I get addresses from 
vary a little over a /24 (I believe), but support says I can't even be 
sure of that, they "reallocate address space according to need". Once I 
have an address, it is fairly persistent over time if mono stays up. And 
yes, I only use one of the five in my current NAT:ed setup, but the 
network card on OPT1/DMZ is up, in a bridged DMZ setup I do get 
addresses from DHCP there.
