They will not clash or fight with each other trying to be the "master 
WINS" if thats what you are asking. :) The reasons that you should not 
use more than one is exactly the contrary, both will ignore each other 
and clients that register or use one to make a query will not use the 
other, ending with only partial knowledge of the neighborhood. (but 
seems that its what you want)

About trying to do more than that and disable the broadcast of the 
servers, I simply never tried/needed to do anything like that. As I 
never saw any reason to do so and as a security measure I don't see it 
being all that usefull either.
