As far as I know, while it will have a public IP address (I don't think it
will be behind a NAT, though I could be wrong), it won't have a static address.

So if I plan to log into it remotely, I'll have to have it report its current
address to me on occasion.

Which probably wouldn't be a bad thing, anyway.
