No. I use one IP for the localip setting. Although with PopTop, you do have
the option of assigning a one-to-one mapping for the local/remote IP's. So
far, I have not found a reason for doing so.

It does not have to be. I assign localip to be the same as my internal
interface IP. Some folks (based on network design and/or security policy)
assign the local/remote IP's to a different subnet. i.e. ip aliasing

Not that I'm aware of.
