Multiple interfaces with the same IP address

Greetings,

is it possible for SNMP to handle multiple interfaces with the same IPv4
address? Net-snmp (5.4) throws error messages to log:

$ ifconfig eth1 192.168.100.1 up
$ ifconfig eth2 192.168.100.1 up
$ /etc/init.d/snmpd start
$ tail /var/log/messages

error on subcontainer 'ia_addr' insert (-1)
error on subcontainer '' insert (-1)

Unfortunately it's quite common to have one IP shared among more
interfaces - e.g. in PPTP server. The same applies to situation, where
there are more interfaces without IP address (e.g. when channel bonding
is configured).

Regards
