the `seq 11 23` generates a list starting at 11, stopping at 23. "seq"
is an external linux command.

the "ip addr add 1.2.3.${i} dev $EXT_IF" statements will add the IP
addresses with a /32 mask--which is fine for the purposes of an alias
for NAT. it also keeps the firewall from ever using one of the alias IP's
as a source address when communicating on the locally-attached network.
only your primary IP on $EXT_IF needs to have the /27 mask.
