You can, but don't have to.  I would just add a new interface in my ppp
gateway machine or put an alias on the existing interface and  with [
ifconfig (your interface) inet 209.222.153.126 netmask 255.255.255.224 alias
] connect my other 29 machines to it and if your isp is routing  this  new
space to you, as I'm sure he is, you're off and running:-)
