I have the same kind of setting but I don't really understand what you mean by
"needing dhcp server" .
Could you precise what you want to do ?
My example : my firewall is the router with the dhcp assigned ip. Behind it I have 4
machines running in a private network. All machines are masqueraded so they get access
to internet as well.
