I recently did exactly this with one of our Customers that
has a GNAT Box PRO.

I set up the WAN as a PSN, rather than an EXT.  This
still allows the GNAT Box to protect the PRO from the WAN,
and also makes it easier to configure the GNAT Box to
protect the WAN from the Internet.

As Maarten mentioned, you will need the multi-interface
option.
