next right click on your network adapter and go to properties:




Select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) and click on properties, the switch from "obtain an IP address automatically" to "use the following IP address" and enter the IP information you received:





Next click on Advanced and under IP adresses click on add and enter the IP address and subnet mask for the secondary IP you were assigned:




Next click on OK on every window so that you apply the changes, this would take care of adding 2 primary and secondary IP statically, make sure to have entered the numbers correctly. A way to confirm the IPs are correctly configured would be to go to start and type cmd, then on the black window type ipconfig /all and hit enter:
