+Note that your system's configuration (in <tt>ssh_config</tt>) might default to <tt>CheckHostIP</tt> being off, which means you can safely omit those lines from your configuration. [YMMV].
Now instead of typing <tt>ssh -p 9622 example.com</tt>, you say <tt>ssh foo</tt> and ssh(1) will figure things out correctly.
A clumsier workaround is to add <tt>~UserKnownHostsFile ~~/.ssh/known_hosts_<i>hostname</i></tt> to each ssh_config(5) stanza, so a different list of known hosts is used for each host.
