...it shouldn't matter (unless your ISP is doing something ghetto) in a
typical home-lan situation where you're just going to IPNAT a /24 of
private space to a /32 of public space using ipf(8).  You don't even need
two NIC's to do a firewall.  That's a common misconception, it's just that
all the examples on the web involve two NICs.  Physical networks are
completely unrelated to logical addressing.

...let me know if you need example configs.
