      DOCS-6368 requests to document that mongodump will dump from a secondary node in a replica set by default.

      This behaviour is now changed in the latest version (3.2.4), where it will dump from the nearest node instead.

      Please see https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-tools/blob/r3.2.4/mongodump/mongodump.go#L131
