I think I kind of understand where this is going. Thank you for your
patience. If you could help me understand one more part I think I will have
it. The part I don't understand is what IP to assign to the alias. Here is
my complete config:


subnet  166.66.66.192
mask            166.66.66.224

Gateway 166.66.66.193   <- eth0
Wan0            192.168.104.2   <- Wan0


Other hosts     166.66.66.194-222

What is the address that I would assign to wan0:0?
