Multiple WAN IPs on Sonicwall firewall

Hey experts;

I've got a Sonicwall 2040 and an Adtran 600R with a block of 5 IPs from our ISP. I have no clue how to access the secondary IPs! I already have HTTP traffic being redirected from the firewall to an internal web server, but I need to configure a secondary web server and I'd like to have it use a secondary IP. The firewall has 4 ports: X1, X2, X3, and OPT. X1 is used for our LAN, X2 is used for our primary IP WAN, and X3 and OPT are currently not in use. Any thoughts on how to do this?

Thanks!

Okay...so my understanding is that I only need the one physical ethernet connection coming from my router, which will automatically provide access to all IPs once I set it up on through NAT policies?

I'm going to go ahead and try this over the weekend and let you all know how it goes. Thanks for the info...

Yes, that's correct, just one physical ethernet connection from the router.

Just make sure that your router is correctly set up to handle (and pass-thru) the relevant public IPs...

I had to do this today, and well this document walks you through exactly how to configure the netopia. Then configuring the Sonicwall is selecting Net Enabled and assign it one of the static ip's and the gateway.

I did it exactly how they said to do it with my laptop connected, then checked to see what ip was assigned to my laptop. I then assigned that exact information in my sonicwall TZ170.
