Clearly you have no idea how IP networks work. You can not have 2 networks cards with one IP. There would be no way to know how to route the packets, and if both networks cards were on the same network, then what would be the point? If you are trying to increase the bandwidth, then you have to use other techniques, such as bonding to share multiple network cards as one logical interface (and it would require the router, or whatever you're connecting to, to support bonding).

In order to do it you have use either two network cards (wireless + LAN, or two LANs, or two wireless cards) or you can use software such as WMWare to create a virtual PC (using setting you can get one more and even more ip addresses for only one existing in real life computer).


Why is network layer associated with IP addressing?

The network layer uses IP addresses to determine whether or not to route a packet from one network to another. Since an IP address has two parts, the network id and the host/client id, this makes it a natural fit (IP addressing) for the network layer.

Suppose a VPN server has multiple network cards from which network interface is an IP address assigned?

Each NIC will have it's own IP address for each network it's connected to. so a machine with 3 network cards has at least 3 IPs (one NIC can have multiple IPs if configured that way, you can also tell a NIC to not acquire an IP, but that's kind of uncommon) the VPN server could be configured to only listen on one network interface or all of them. Also the IP addresses assigned to the clients should route them on the NIC with matching IP/netmask, but that can also be configured. you probably want to use a static IP for the interfaces to your VPN server and configure it to only use the network interfaces that you want it to.

Can a host have more than one IP address?

One of the most simplest ways a computer, or device, can obtain two IP addresses is if you have different network cards in your computer. For example, a laptop might has a Wireless Network Card as well as an Ethernet Card. You are able to assign an IP address to your Ethernet card and the Wireless card. Remember that an IP address is not assigned to a computer, but rather it is assigned to a network interface card.
