WatchGuard Firebox Drop-in Mode physical connection diagram

Hello,

First time using a WatchGuard UTM (familiar with Cyberoam).

I need to use this WatchGuard Firebox in Drop-in Mode in two days' time.  I have read everything but the one thing it does not say  CLEARLY  is how to physically connect the Firebox to your network for Drop-in Mode.  So my question, to anyone who has done it, is whether I have the following correct :

a)   Disconnect the Internet NAT router from the internal LAN and instead
      connect that Internet NAT router to the External Interface of the Firebox - Interface 0.
      Connection is to the LAN side of the Internet router using a static LAN IP on Inferface 0 of the Firebox.

b)   Connect the Trusted Interface, Interface 1, to the Internal LAN using a separate static LAN IP.

c)    Change nothing on your internal LAN - PCs and servers continue to point to the
       Internet router as their gateway.

d)    Start configuring rules.


Thanks for answering.
