If you are connecting to the ISP it would be better not to specify IP to

How will I go ahead and set the static ips for both my wan connections?
If IPs are static then provider itself will negotiate them every time
same. If you will specify them and provider will request another,
negotiation will fail. So I would not recommend you to specify them.
For wan1 I have one ip and for wan2 I have 5 ips
Probably for wan2 you have one interface IP plus some network routed to
you. PPP protocol does not allows to negotiate routed network, so that
network probably should be configured by hands somewhere.
I was orginally thinking of seting up proxy-arp to add the extra 4 ips on
wan2 after connecting using the first ip, but now I'm not to sure anymore.
proxy-arp is working only with Ethernet. If you are going to give that
static IPs only to PPTP users - you probably don't need it.
We need these ips because some of the websites and servers that we manage
are ip restricked for added security, this is also the reason why I have a
pptp server for the people thats not in our office.
You can specify static IPs for those users in mpd.secret file.
How does mpd5 assign the ng interfaces, in my previose cong there was a
line new -i ng0 provider PPPoE0, does mpd5 do this automatically?
Interfaces will be allocated by system in order of usage. WAN1 will be
ng0, WAN2 - ng1 and the PPTP link's interfaces will be allocated
dynamically on connect.
