This is not necessarily a problem as for the system runs fine, but this system was not installed or configured by me and I am trying to figure out what is going on with 2 IPv4 IP's listed when only a single IP I have thought forever could be used per Network Adapter unless a higher end server NIC with multiple RJ45 ports etc.
What caught my eye was these two IPv4 IP's when performing a IPCONFIG/ALL. I was not expecting to see 2 IP addresses for a single network adapter. Info below is an altered copy/paste of info to represent similar to what I am seeing on this other system that I dont have internet access from to copy/paste the actual info from. I took notes and edited the copy/paste from this computer that I am at now.
The OS of the system is also Windows 2000 Professional SP4 and not Windows 7 that this copy/paste of ipconfig came from.C:\Users\user1>ipconfig/all

Going into the NIC properties of the Windows GUI the normal static IP info is listed. Then going into advanced is when I find that there are multiple IP references.

Looked at google first for info on this before posting here for info on why its set this way. Google wasnt much help and closest reference I found was:
