Or configure your clients with static IP addresses and manual gateway/nameserver configuration, see answer to Q1. You also want your machine to do network address translation, see https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/advanced-networking/ especially 32.2.2 and https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/firewalls/ especially 31.3.1 and 31.3.2.1
