"I have known Alan for a long time. He brings a wealth of experience to the coaching team, and I am delighted that he is on board as we look to qualify for our first World Cup since 1958."
Knill, who won one cap for Wales in 1988, will link up with the squad for next month's friendly against Finland in Helsinki before qualifiers against Belarus and Estonia.
He said: "I am very excited to be joining Rob, the staff and the rest of the squad. I played for Cymru and I recently lost my dad who was a passionately proud Welshman, he would have been thrilled.
"I was delighted when I took the call from Rob, I have worked with several of the players and I'm excited to meet the whole squad.
"My role is to support Rob, to help on the training ground and to analyse the opposition. If I can help continue to build the success of our national team, I will be very happy."
