Use dedicated interface for replication and balancing
Like many other big database system, MongoDB may support to specify dedicated interfaces for replication and/or for the balancer (sharding)
Currently you can configure replication sets and shards members only by single hostname/IP-Address, i.e. all data is transmitted over the same network interface.
