      Hi!
      I'm Norwegian, so sorry my English.

      I have a pfSense box (of course), and a ISP that provides me 4 dynamic IPs. They're not always in same subnet, it's often IPs that begins with 46.x.x.x, other times it begins with 162.x.x.x etc etc.

      And I've a server, and I want to assign a virtual IP to it, but I don't know how I do. I know how to do when I have static IPs, but not dynamic.

      Nope, I CAN NOT get static IPs from my ISP (it sucks :( )

      Any ideas?

        You cannot get dynamic virtual IP's.

        What you could do:
        Add as many interfaces as you can get public IPs, (Alternatively get a VLAN capable switch) and configure the additional interfaces to get their IP via DHCP.

        We do what we must, because we can.
