Multiple instances of WL on the same box :several Ip addresses using the same port

Question

Hi all,
I want to set up several instances of WL on the same server. These
instances will be clustered.
I am using Apache for the WebServer.
Here the configuration I used:
I first change the weblogic.conf file in Apache to set up the bridge.I
restart apache using apachectl.
Then, on the WebLogic site, I created a new ipadress using ifconfig
hme0:1 ip adress ...
I created a file hostname.hme0:1 in /etc
I added this Ip address in /etc/hosts.
I added this Ip address in the mycluster DNS.
I wanted to start both WL manually using startWebLogic.sh file to see
the log file.
So, I first assign hostname to WL1. Then start WL.
I opened an other terminal. Assign the hostname to WL2. Then start using
startWebLogic.sh.
The first instance started correctly.When the second started, there was
an error: when listening to the port 7001, this port was already used.
That was the same with the port 7002.
Then , my question is How is it possible to configure several instances
on the same machine using several ip addresses and one port.
Thank you for your help.

          Please try -Dweblogic.system.bindAddr=<a.b.c.d> in your startWebLogic.sh.
