Ok... I saw that you had a another thread about this (NAT vs. non-NAT). If
that's the reason why you are confused... I think is because you were asking
two different questions.

The gold rule here is that: "You want your ISP to give to a public IP
address". If they provide you with a router... you should get one that hands
out public IPs (Non-NAT). However, if you want a 2nd firewall in front of
ISA for a 2nd lever of protection (or whatever your reasons are) you would
like a NAT router/firewall.

At least... thats my take on this :-)
