Two quick ipnat questions
I've got a NetBSD box with only one network interface. I'd like to
place my external WiFi access point on a private network. I need to
disable NAT within the access point because I need to access some
devices from my externally-visible network.
Here's a quick ASCII-art diagram:

So, two questions:
1. Can I use ipnat on the NetBSD box, running it as a "one-armed
router"?
2. Can I use an external NAT address other than the address assigned
to the NetBSD box? (IE, the interface on NetBSD is x.y.z.2 and I
want to use x.y.z.99 for translated addresses). If I do this, will
ipnat automatically add an arp entry so the ISP's router can find
it, or will I have to manually publish the arp entry?
TIA.
