Actually, for DSL the majority of the providers use PPPoE, not DHCP. I
believe there are settings to pppd to handle PPPoE now.

The IP address of the NIC connected to your DSL depends on your DLS
provider's setup. For most setups, you just set that NIC to use DHCP to
get its IP address, and the gateway IP.
To give you an idea, my firewall have 192.168.9.254 on the NIC for the
local network, and 64.34.45.209 on the NIC connected to the DSL router.
I end up with a route like this:
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
192.168.9.254 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 eth1
64.34.45.208 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.252 U 0 0 0 eth0
192.168.9.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1
127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo
0.0.0.0 64.34.45.210 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
