Here is the situation:
We are going to be getting an internet connection with a /28 block of
public IPs. What I would like to do is be able to filter all of the
traffic through one Router/Firewall box so I can do filtering, QoS,
bandwidth monitoring, etc. and give a public IP to a series of Linksys
routers for different tenants in the building. I am not quite sure how
to setup the IPs since I have only had experience with 1 public IP and
NAT in the past. I have tentatively come up with this setup but I
wanted to run it by someone more knowledgable than myself before
ordering the equipment and deploying everything. Here is a diagram to
help clarify:

Would this addressing scheme work? I thought about subdividing the
subnet but I don't want to lose IPs in the process and it seems like it
would unnecessarily complicate things.
Thanks in advance!
