Second IP address for my network

I requested a second IP address from our ISP. They said it will be assigned to our site the following way:

Modem IP: xxx.xxx.xxx.xx1
Router IP: xxx.xxx.xxx.xx2
Five extra IP addresses:
IP 1: xxx.xxx.xxx.xx3
IP 1: xxx.xxx.xxx.xx4
IP 1: xxx.xxx.xxx.xx5
IP 1: xxx.xxx.xxx.xx6
IP 1: xxx.xxx.xxx.xx7

After they get them assigned, I should be able to ping these IPs internally, correct?
Is there any special configuration that I have to do in the router for these IPs?
Router is Netgear Prosafe Dual WAN FVS336Gv2

Thanks for you fast response.

First question. Once they have them assigned, I should be able to ping the second IP internally, correct? They are saying the IPs are assigned and I am asking where are they? Currently I can't ping the second IP address. I can ping the Gateway IP address for the modem and I can ping the router IP address assigned to the router, but not the newly assigned IP address. Seems like if they say they assigned it, I should then be able to ping it internally.

Second question. How do I configure in my router to route the second IP address to a specific server?

Thanks. Both of your suggestions worked. I opened up ports temporarily and I am now able to ping these new assigned IP addresses.
