Setting up with 5 public IP's

I am kind of new at this, so bear with me.

I have a cable modem setup connected to a Linksys router. I just purchased 5 new static ips for DNS servers, Web server, Mail server, etc.

How would I go about geeting all of my 5 static IP's accessable from the 'Net?

Would I need to setup 5 DMZ's?
And does this product support what I need to do? (Including my Linky Router)

I do have a spare server and about 7 10/100 NICs.

Thanks in adv.

hi chipster,

you do not need one NIC for each IP address [:)]

in your case, you should attach ASL to your primary IP, and add one DMZ with an IP address of 192.168.x.x. Then set static host routes (netmask 255.255.255.255) to the DMZ interface for each separate IP you have. Activate Proxy ARP on BOTH interfaces on the ASL and use the same default gateway on the ASL and the new servers.

I will write a HOWTO on such cases as yours, many people seem to have ISPs who do not offer proper routing ...
