VPN Router behind Nighthawk XR500

Is it possible to cascade a VPN router behind the XR500?  Are there any special configurations required on the XR500?

Yes. 

I would use the XR routers DMZ for the router behind so it gets uninterupted traffic from the XR router.

Thanks! Would that require me to have a 2nd IP address from my ISP for the VPN Router?
