[HPADM] Secure Web Console problem

Hi.

I have some problems connecting a secure web console to the external network through a NAT translation of a Cisco router.
With the previous Internet provider, we choosed to leave to the Web Console an external IP address, through the creation of a mini-subnet of just two IP addresses, the first given to the (internal) network interface of the router and the second to the web console. This two interfaces were the only two leaved out of the translation performed by the NAT of the router. This turnaround was working until the last change of "provider": it seemed to me the only solution, because the web console refused to work with the NAT translation - probably, there is some information about the net addressing inside the Java applets used in the console.
With the new "provider", the situation changes: they don't want to create the mini-subnet with just the two IP addresses, letting all of the network traffic going from/to the internal to/from the external network interface of the router pass through the NAT translation.

Anyone has already encountered this problem ? And perhaps solved it ?

Thank you
