If this is for experimentation, you'll probably also want to set up
different logs, too.

The neatest way to do this might be on virtuals, rather than on the same
host. That way each will be completely separate from the others -
addresses, ports, logs etc. And if/when you then want to put a
configuration into production, you might even be able to just drop the
virtual onto a suitable host, tweak the config for a real address, and
off you go...
