Understanding Static IP Block
We have an SMC3Dg device with 5 static IPs. The gateway device reports that my WAN IP address is 75.XX.YY.6, and my Static IP Block is 75.XX.YY.6/29.
My question is, what are my actual Static IPs?
I'm guessing that they are like this:
75.XX.YY.6 (Gateway)
75.XX.YY.5
75.XX.YY.4
75.XX.YY.3
75.XX.YY.2
75.XX.YY.1
Is that right?

I should point out that a point of confusion for me is the fact that the gateway sits in what appears to be the middle of the Static IP block's range or /29. If /29 means the last 3 bits dasignate the host, then 6 (110) sits in the middle of that. I would expect it to be either 1 (001) or 7 (111).
Perhaps I'm just lost & overthinking things.

With a /29 you have ips from 0 to 7, 0 is the network ip, 7 is the broadcast, 6 is your default gateway which leaves you with 5 usable ip from 1 to 5.
So the gateways sits in the last usable ip of that subnet (just before the broacast ip).
