You can have an "alternate" IP address that will be used instead ofsparky62 said:Can a single physical network adapter be configured to have more than one IP

APIPA if there is no response from a DHCP server within the time-out
period.

address on XP Pro?
Yes, provided that all of the addresses are static. Assign the first
static address in the network connection's TCP/IP properties, then
click Advanced. For each additional address, click the Add button
under "IP addresses" and assign it.

Sure you can but only one will be used at a time.
Find the connection you are interested under network connections. Right
click and select properties.
On the General tab highlite Internet Protocal (TCP/IP).
Click Properties.
Now click the Alternate Configuration Tab. Enter the information for your
second address.

Yes, a network adapter can have more than one IP address, and it can
use all of them simultaneously.
All of the addresses must be static. Assign the first one in the
network connection's TCP/IP properties. Then, click the Advanced tab
and add the other ones.
The Alternate Configuration tab doesn't let you assign more than one
IP address. It lets you assign a static IP address to be used if:
1. The connection is configured to obtain an IP address automatically,
and:
2. It can't communicate with a DHCP server to obtain an IP address.
