I am intrigued. This seems like a great idea-- each workstation gets its own NAT translation and the benefit of never receiving any unsolicited packets, not just from the Internet, but from local sources.

I anticipate a somewhat complicated dhcpd configuration, but I wonder if there are any ARP issues that might arise from mapping multiple IP subnets onto a single Ethernet segment.
