Can enter the line:
ipmap from 1.2.3.4 to 1.2.3.4
This being a public IP. Will it simply bridge the IP through Station Server?

Probably an easier method would be to simply enable bridging. :)
The command you mentioned, with both the public and private IPs being the same would probably produce some unexpected results, so is not advisable.
The proper syntax for the ipmap function is:
ipmap from <public_ip> to <private_ip>, where as the public IP is bound to the ethernet device that goes to the Internet, or the rest of the network, and private IP is bound to a customer's machine.

I only want that IP to pass through. That happens to be one customer that gets a static public IP, and all my other customers get private IP's.

In this case, the ipmap would be your best bet.

We are using several of station routers, and I connected to one of them. The problem is from my personal computer connected with let say "testone router" I can't update firmware using ftp utility at let say "testwo router" which is connected in the same networks.
At "testone router" is no problem at all. I suspect something should be done on configuration at "testone router" to ftp pass tru...

You mean I can have public AND private (NAT) IPs on the internal side of the CPE? Would elaborate on that?
Thankx,

You have your inside LAn built with private IP addresses and you have a few of them mapped to a public IP. That means that I could access your web server even though it has only been assigned a private IP.
The web server lives a double life though - it is known by its public Ip only from the outside, and all access to the site from the inside are by its private IP. This is not a perfect way, but it does work very well, and to most applications is totally transparent. Most VPN routers have trouble with this.

Ok, I understand that. Now, what if its ok for most of my customers to have a 192.168.x.x IP but just one of then insists in having a REAL IP on his server -- is there any way to provide this? Lets say, some sort of bridging and NAT at the same time?
Thankx,

This is where you put all you have learned about routing to work. You have successfully subnetted your Public Class C into small subnets. You route one of them to your AP, which now has a public and a Private IP. You give your customers privates except for the few guys who insist on a public IP. Since it is so important they will of course be willing to pay an extra $5 a month. This is the quickest way to figure who needs it and who simply think they need it. Nobody will pay extra unless they really need it.
