Hello,

Let's consider 2 options.

Either those hosts are "somewhat the same", and you may find it useful
to stick the same host keys to both, then use something like a
*Hostname* directive ssh_config(5).

Or they actually are different, and you should refer to each host with a
specific name, that is, using a different hostname and a key.
