      Thoroughly confused on how to configure the "LAN" block (really a block of public, dedicated IP addresses) of a Comcast "EDI" connection.

      The "WAN" connection is working in pfsense:
      Link IP Address: 50.x.x.156/30
      Gateway: 50.x.x.157 <- configured as ipv4 upstream gateway on pfsense WAN interface
      Layer 3 IP: 50.x.x.158 <- configured as ipv4 address on pfsense WAN interface

      That WAN link works -- not actual 192.168.x.x LAN we have can NAT through the WAN link, and access the internet.

      What I'm confused by is how to use the static IP block we're paying for that comcast describes as a "LAN" block:
      Usable IP Block: 50.x.x.64/29
      Usable IP Ranges: 50.x.x.65 - 50.x.x.70

      How do I get that block working/routing on/through pfsense so some devices on the network could be configured with the publicly accessible static IP addresses?
