I too have got away with adding multiple IP's to the internal interface
in certain circumstances but external is a different story. If you add a
secondary IP externally then the FW may start using that IP as the
source causing a wide array of problems. The official way to add IP's to
an interface is through vlan tagging.

You can add secondary IP addresses and it will work. You have to take
into
account routing, licencing of Checkpoint sometimes, etc etc.

I have had it working internally before.

Cheers.
