So on my router, eth0 is connected to the ISP router, and gets an ip via dhcp, which will be whatever ip the isp router got, and this ip can change from time to time. I'd like to NAT traffic out via eth0, or whatever ip eth0 happens to have at the time.

 From the manual:

[ifX*:net*]
                      Matches the IPv4 network of the first IPv4 address
                      assigned to the/ifX/.  It is intended to help matching the
                      IPv4 network of the IPv4 address assigned to the/ifX/
                      dynamically, e.g. by DHCP.
