Primary NAT/DHCP'd IP

STOIE

Hi all,

I have 9 IP's on my home ADSL link (connected via PPPoE), I currently NAT my internal network and assign 1:1 NAT rules for the extra 8 IP's then farm them off to my hosts.
Thing I am wondering is, any device that connects on my network, lets say via DHCP, is automatically NAT'd through the default IP…
Is there a way I can change what the default IP is (that gets NAT'd out) to one of the other 8 IP's associated to me?

Reason is this:
My ISP is throttling my primary IP, but, other IP's are not being throttled... ever!
So, I wish to basically, never use the primary IP if possible.

Help would be very appreciated.

Aaron.

You can NAT to every (Virtual-) IP assigned to pfsense.
Go to Firewall -> Nat; Tab: Outbound

Some hints:
-> Assign virtual IPs if you need to
-> I had some trouble (not applied NAT-rules) solved after rebooting pfsense.
-> Have a look at: http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Outbound_NAT
