(PM) static IP users

I followed the recent discussion about how to set up a user for static
IP, but
I have a followup clarification if someone would be kind enough to
explain.
I recall someone saying that you do not want your static IP in your
dialup pool,
that makes sense. But can you, if you have a PM3 with a 48 IP pool,
define
a .192 masked subnet (62 hosts), route that to your PM3, and use the
statics
in the range outside of the pool but in that subnet. If that is the
preferred method,
how do you handle a bank of PM3's, when you don't know for sure where
the
static IP user will dial into? At busy times, they may roll over into
any of the PM's
so how do you handle routing for the static ranges? Am I missing
something
obvious here? Is this really much simpler that I am thinking?

Thanks in advance.
