Yeah, but you can't specify two different GWs in the same DHCP global subnet
scope properties. They all take either one or none. The article states that
inorder to "load balance" you must set the PCs to divide between the two
virtual IPs of the GWs. SO basically you have to manually set the GW on
every PC, then call that "load balancing"
