Jon,

If you have an ethernet behind the DSL modem and can attach 9 PCs to that
network, and they can each connect to the internet using static IP
addresses, then you have all the routing support you need.

Pick one of your 9 addresses.

Choose a subnet from the class C which includes that address as
neither the network (0) or broadcast (all 111s) address.

Configure your PSN to be that subnet.

Configure your server for that address and connect it.

Set up your tunnel from the chosen address to the PSN.

That should be sufficient. This unfortunately is theoretical since I
can't set up a configuration to mimic what I'm suggesting.
