  1.  Just use an ethernet cable to connect the Huawei B618
       LAN  interface to the IPCop RED interface.  
  2.  In the IPCop setup,  at ....
     <http://www.ipcop.org/2.0.0/en/install/images/200-redinterface.png>
       select the [DHCP]  option.
  3.  The rest of your IPCop setup for the other interfaces (GREEN,
       BLUE, ORANGE) should still be the same as usual.

  I think the Huawei B618 will give an address in the 192.168.8.xxx 
subnet, so just avoid 192.168.8.anything for your other interfaces.
