I suggest giving back 3 of those IPs and configuring your system for natd. This way, you can have an arbitrary number of machines behind your FreeBSD box and seamlessly proxy for them. Beyond enabling gatewaying, you need to build a kernel with the ipfw options and turn on natd and ipfw w/ an 'open' firewall in /etc/rc.conf. You'll be ready to go next restart. For the internal net, you use fake addresses, like 192.168.0.*.
