Second Network Address on same NIC

Sometimes you need to bind a second IP address to a Network Interface Card. Maybe you need access to another network temporarily or you just need to fix something that comes with a default address not on your network.
From Linux, you can execute the following command:
ifconfig eth0:1 192.168.5.16 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
This will add a second IP Address to your eth0 network interface.
