Can I use this gateway for IPS only in a drop-in config?

Hello, I'm new to the Astaro firewalls. I'm wondering if it can be configured to check IPS in a drop-in mode configuration. Here's what I mean:

I have a PepLink WAN aggregator and a PIX firewall connected in chain:

Internet lines --->PepLink---->PixFirewall--->LAN,DMZ

Can I place the Astaro firewall to do IPS (only) between the PepLink and the Pix firewall without having to modify the configuration in either the PepLink or Pix firewall?

I have a number of public IP addresses mapped to internal private addresses from the PepLink to the Pix firewall and I would like to avoid having to modify all of that.

Astaro can run in a bridged, aka "transparent", mode, but I'm not sure if the IPS works in that mode.

The IPS does work in bridged mode, as does the firewall.
