I think someone else did that; I don't recall doing that.
The reason I'm concerned is that I'm going to be moving soon, and I don't
know whether I'll be able to get more than one static IP address. I want
to connect two machines via Airport so I can eliminate some of the
tangles of wiring; one or two other machines (inlcuding the michelle.org
email server), as well as the printers, will have to use wired ethernet
regardless.
