    Simple, on any given IP address only a single "listener" is allowed. Therefore you could setup a default instance on one ip address at the default port and a named instance on another ip address also on the default port, but you couldn't have both on the same ip address with both having the default port. Also be careful about having both ip addresses in the same subnet, there could be routing issues..
