A. It is possible to assign more than one IP address to a single NIC (Network Interface Card). To configure extra IP addresses under NT 4.0 perform the following:
- Right click on Network Neighborhood and select Properties (if you are unable to do this start the Network Control Panel applet via control panel)
- Select the Protocols tab
- Select 'TCP/IP Protocol' and click the Properties button
- Select the 'IP Address' tab and you will see your normal IP address. Click the Advanced button at the bottom of the dialog
- Select the Adapted and click Add under the IP addresses section
- Enter the new IP address and subnet mask. Click Add
Click here to view image - Click OK to the advanced dialog
- Click Apply then OK to the TCP/IP dialog
- Close all other dialogs
- Reboot the computer
Under Windows 2000 the procedure is the same except to get the TCP/IP protocol properties you need to:
- Right click on "My Network Places" and select Properties
- Right click on "Local Area Connection" and select Properties
- Select "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and select Properties
- The procedure is then as above except the reboot is not necessary
