How to use multiple objectfilters in python

I am using the following object filter to get a list of virtual servers

object_filter1 = {
    'virtualGuests': {
    'dedicatedAccountHostOnlyFlag': {'operation': 1},
    'powerState': {'name': {'operation': 'Running'}}
    }

virtualServers = client['Account'].getVirtualGuests(mask=object_mask,filter=object_filter)

How can I define another filter with contition powerState.name == RUNNING and primaryIpAddress attribute having a value? (!=null) or set? I want to use both these filters applied to my result i.e. either object_filter1 condition or the 2nd condition must be true

Please, try the following example:

import SoftLayer
# For nice debug output:
from pprint import pprint as pp

API_USERNAME = 'set me'
API_KEY = 'set me'


filterInstance = {
  'virtualGuests': {
    'powerState': {
      'name': {
        'operation': 'Running'
      }
    },
    'primaryIpAddress': {
      'operation': 'not null'
    }
  }
}

# Creates a new connection to the API service.
client = SoftLayer.Client(
    username=API_USERNAME,
    api_key=API_KEY
)

try:
    result = client['SoftLayer_Account'].getVirtualGuests( filter = filterInstance)
    pp(result)

except SoftLayer.SoftLayerAPIError as e:
    pp('Failed ...  faultCode=%s, faultString=%s'
        % (e.faultCode, e.faultString))
