 ...
  host 1 {
    hardware ethernet 00:25:33:44:80:55;
    fixed-address [something];
  }

  host 2 {
    hardware ethernet 14:99:88:71:77;
    fixed-address [something];
  }
...

or a, b, or host1, host2 (not sure if plain numbers are allowed)
The 'host' line does not need to match the 'fixed-address' line.
