To add IP to webmin, go to hardware->network configuration->network-interfaces. You should see your main IP as eth0. Look at the section below that says "interface activated at boot time", click on eth0, and then click on add virtual interface, and fill out the details. Do this for all your IPs.

Now reboot, and the IPs should be working.

If you want to do it through the command line, search the man pages for ifconfig.
