I would like to make very easy connection between two devices:
Device One is in WiFi1 and Device Two in WiFi2;
The Device One has local address 192.168.4.65;
The WiFi1 has IP address 12.34.56.78
(only example)
I want to run "nc -l <some parameters>" on my first device, and "nc <address>" on the second, so they connect;
I know, what to do if I want to connect two devices in a local area network;
But for global I have no Idea, what <some parameters> and <address> should be; can someone please help?

Thanks to #that-other-guy and #Barmar!!
You can do it by managing your router settings; If you configurate port forwarding, it will move you to the device you want to;
targeting 12.34.56.78:1234 to 192.168.4.65:1234. Then nc -l 1234 will be reachable with nc 12.34.56.78 1234

In some Linux hosts it returns IP of the interface eth0 and in some it returns IP assigned to NIC eth1 device, and in some machines it returns all the IP assigned to all the network interfaces.
$ hostname -i
*192.168.0.58 192.168.0.59 192.168.0.60*
How this is happening and how to configure this hostname command to return an IP of a particular network interface?
There seems to be no option in hostname to return the IP of a particular network interface.
Try this:
ifconfig eth0 | grep -Po 'inet \K(\S+)'

Is there any Linux command/Bash script for wireless clients to know the number of clients connected to each WiFi SSID ? How can I do this in bash ?
I am not sure what you want to achieve, so I will give you several answers to point in different directions.
To get all SSIDs (including all public information) you can use the following ...
$ su
# iwlist scan
I hope this is what you looking for.
If not, then you maybe want to know how many active connections one service is carring. This is by far more complicated. To check for active connections you will need a port sniffler like tcpdump and huge knowlegde.
A more common way would be to access the log files or the protocol of the server, but I think you had not asked if you have the rights to do so.

I am studying ssh and I haven't understood the following command with option D
ssh -D 9999 username#remotehost.net
can someone explain what this command does exactly with an example and when it is useful?
This will forward all packets to remotehost.net from localhost:9999 (in your example). In a nutshell this is socks proxy.
From ssh man page:
Specifies a local “dynamic” application-level port forwarding. This works by allocating a socket to listen to port on
the local
side, optionally bound to the specified bind_address. Whenever a connection is made to this port, the connection is
forwarded over
the secure channel, and the application protocol is then used to determine where to connect to from the remote machine. Currently
the SOCKS4 and SOCKS5 protocols are supported, and ssh will act as a SOCKS server. Only root can forward privileged ports.
Dynamic port forwardings can also be specified in the configuration file.

Scenario: Main Linux Server is Connected to Local Switch Gateway. From Gateway to the network.
Now i can able to get the IP of the Remote Clients/Users who logged into the Server.
Linux Command : *"who -u" (gives me the IP Address of the users IP Address).*
For getting the MAC Address of the same user. I tried the arp -a command, It gave the switch MAC-Address only. I cant able to get the Remote Clients/User MAC Address.
Linux Command : "arp -a" (gives me the MAC Address of the Switch).
How to the MAC Address of the Remote Clients Machines ?
Note : My Client Machines can run on any OS (Windows/Linux/Solaris).
MAC addresses doesn't get routed, so the IP address would have to be of a host on your network. You will have to ping the IP address first and then use arp -a; like
ping <Remote_IP_Address>
arp -a <Remote_IP_Address>

I want to configure my lan interface of the router with 2 IP address.
My router has OpenWRT as firmware
How to edit my openwrt config file inorder to have 2 ip address on the same lan interface?
ifconfig is a quite deprecated tool.
Today we have iproute2 suite which, for many reasons, is much better than ifconfig&co.
For example with iproute2 you don't have to use the "trick" of a virtual interface to have more the one ip address on the same physical interface:
ip addr add IP dev eth0
As you have tagged "linux" in your question, I guess OpenWRT is Linux based.
On Linux, you can do aliases to your eth0 interface. For example, to add an IP to an existing eth0 interface which has already one configured IP, you can do something like:
# ifconfig eth0:1 newIP ... rest of parameters ... (from root)
It would help if you add a sample of your configuration file to the question.
