You can define just one bank, and put the servers below that.
(you need a : after bank!)
I use:
bank:
/data
and then have /data/server1/etc, /data/server1/home, etc
and /data/server2/etc, /data/server2/var-www, etc
You also need an entry for each if you want to use dirvish-runall:
Runall:
server1/etc 22:00
server1/home 22:00
server2/etc 22:00
server2/var-www 22:00
...
dirvish-runall will then execute dirvish for each of these.

IP or hostname doesn't matter, so long as the name resolves and "ssh IP"
or "ssh hostname" works.

You can also have rsync running as a daemon on the systems, then you
don't use ssh. You will have to define the tree as :modulename in that
case.
