Thanks.
Yes, you can, but ...
The problem is to know which address is allocated
by the DHCP server. The problem vanishes if you
can force the router to give always the same IP
address to your box (and its MAC address).

Thanks Tauno, appreciated.
I have small board with ethernet port, by default it comesup with
192.168.168.168 IP addr, if I sell this port some customer, they have
192.168.0.1 subnet, they want to control some LED on this board using
web interface (web server running on thos board) by putting this board
on their network by assigning static IP addr using board web
interface.
If I sell to some customer they have 192.168.0.1 subnet, they will
connect their PC directly to baord and goto webpage of baord by
http://192.168.168.168, then they will enter static IP addr like
192.168.0.99 to the board and then they will pulg this baord on their
subnet, now they should access this board from anywhere from their
network by typing 192.168.0.99 and they will goto different page to
control LEDs ON and OFF, will it work?.
