It's possible that you've configured the client-side options to
select an alternative port number when you connect to "name" but
not when you connect to "ip".

If your client is OpenSSH on a Unix-like environment, look at the
~/.ssh/config file to see whether this is the case.  (In theory it
could also be configured in /etc/ssh/ssh_config but you should not be
doing that.)
