My use case was using it to monitor vservers (using Linux-VServer, available in Debian) and the hosts. One of the requirements for TCP/IP ports usage in a vserver is that the port isn't bound to 0.0.0.0 in the host, so you typically bind to only the IPs you are itnerested in. So I wanted to do a bind on the public IP and another one to the private IP. My Zabbix server, running in another host, would be able to monitor 1) the zabbix agent in the vserver host, 2) the zabbix agents in the vservers in that host.
