toaster-0 and toaster-1 are 2 different host names that will resolve to 2 different IP addresses. They can be in the same subnet or different subnets. If your VIFs are on the same filer and subnet and you wish to have your clients talk to them specifically, they have to resolve to 2 different names. This can be done by host files on your client or by DNS entries.
Yes, I have this setup in our dns, and the two vifs have seperate hostnames. The vif1 ip (10.10.2.10) has a hostname of na2 and the vif2 ip (10.10.2.12) has a hostname of na2-vif2. On the hosts I can 'host' and 'nslookup' the hostnames and get the correct responses from dns. I've also tried mounting the exports via the vif2 ip address and have the same results.
