Strictly speaking "multihomed" refers to a machine with multiple
network interfaces. If you assigned multiple IP addresses to the same
interface this is called "IP aliasing".

There may be some security implications when creating such firewall
designs with only a single interface. It is best to physically isolate
external and internal subnets, I think.
