        Call your ISP and have them give you a /29 on the interface and route the /25 to your address on that. Then you can just put all or part of the /25 on that inside interface.

        DO NOT set a source address/port in a port forward or firewall rule unless you KNOW you need it!

          and i think i should give one of this ip addresses to my server_interface and this ip should also be gateway of servers?

            Yes. Just like you would with an rfc1918 network.

            If they routed 1.1.1.0/25 to you:

            Interface: 1.1.1.1 /25
            Usable: 1.1.1.2 - 1.1.1.126
            They'd set 1.1.1.1 as the gateway.
            Or you could configure DHCP to hand out the addresses if you wanted.
            You could also just use a /26, /27, /28, /29, /30, /31 on the inside interface and use the rest of the space for other purposes.
