Well considering the routers are providing internet access, and the RH box 
seems to be a router to, why use port forwarding for admin access?  They have 
ports reachable in Internal network, so it seems over-egging the pudding.

If the routers don't know about the 10/8 Internal network at all, then all 
access to them will need to be masqueraded and appear to come from the RH 
router.
