I take it that you have an ISP gateway and then a bunch of ip ranges 
assigned to you by your ISP?

If your box has a link on 55.20.0.0/255.255.0.0 and then more physical 
links to 56.1.x.0/24 individually (machines on two separate physical 
networks) or one more physical link to 56.1.1.0/23 (all machines on one 
physical network and you are going to assign ips from 56.1.1.x and 
56.1.2.x) then all you need is setup the default route of the box to 
55.20.0.2, enable ip forwarding and then point the default route of all 
clients to the box's corresponding ip on their subnets (eg: two physical 
links, 56.1.1.1 and 56.1.2.1) or on their subnet (only one physical 
link, 56.1.1.1)

If you want to control what packets get through the box, use the 
iptables -t filter FORWARD chain.
