Some question about server listen

Server NGINX
1

========my nginx.conf===========
server {

           listen                 10.1.1.1:80;
           server_name             www.test1.com;
           root /opt/test1;
   }

server {

           listen                 80;
           server_name             www.test2.com;
           root /opt/test2;
   }

========my nginx.conf===========
I found that server www.test2.com not listen on 10.1.1.1 ,but only
listen on 127.0.0.1,why ?

Probably, you mistook: in this case nginx listen on *:80 only.

If you want to bind() to an address, then you should set
listen 10.1.1.1:80 default bind;

Yes,I saw that nginx listen on 0.0.0.0:80
but when I use :
curl -v -H “Host: www.test2.com” http://10.1.1.1/index.html
I get the result of www.test1.com/index.html,

and use
curl -v -H “Host: www.test2.com” http://127.0.0.1/index.html
then get the result of test2.com - test2 Resources and Information.

In this case ,does “listen *:80” means this virtual_server only bind
to the ip address not used by any other virtual_server?

Although nginx listen on *:80, nevertheless it tests an address where
a request was sent to, as if nginx was bind() to the address. It
emulates
usual socket bind() behaviour.
