Can eBox handle Multi gateway with WAN using DHCP??

I'm afraid it is only possible to handle multigateway rules using static IP addresses in your eBox.

Best regards,

When referring to eBox, I'm referring to the ISO from the website.

Can I DHCP an address and then statically assign it to use this? My ISP provides IPs via DHCP, but I can take that IP and statically assign it. So far, I've had one since April 2008. Using Windows, the IP ends up changing while I'm using it after a few months so I dunno what that's all about. Although, I have one setup in Gentoo which is unchanging. If I move that IP to eBox (using the same adapter and MAC), then could I have a similar experience w/ eBox considering the networking functions are mostly the same as Gentoo?
