OK - so just so I've got this correct - xx.xx.xx.54 is the static IP I assign to the WAN interface from the ISP (the public IP) - what do I then add to the LAN side of the router?

I'm assuming a static IP from the pool of 6 IP's - then the external interface of the firewall device gets the same IP and the internal interface of the firewall gets a 192.168.x.x or whatever.
