Public or Private IPs…

My current scenario is:

-a full T1 with 32 static IPs from the IPS.
-A soho3 firewall.
-a 50 user microsoft network.

Right now I have one public IP used by my soho3, which is set to NAT mode. Each WS is set with a static private IP. Although the firewall will serve DHCP to guest stations.

It was suggested to me that I set each WS with a public IP and set my firewall to standard mode. I do not allow my users remote access so I don’t see how this would benfit.

Any thoughts? What would be the benefits or consequences?

Thanks
Chaz
