The NIC1 is responsible for communicating with cluster (monitor and RADOS) and the NIC2 has other services except Ceph?s client. So   we need the client can bind specific IP in order to differentiate the IP communicating with cluster from another IP serving other applications. We want to know is there any configuration in Ceph to achieve this function? If there is, how could we configure the IP? if not, could we add this function in Ceph? Thank you so much.
you can use routing tables plus routing rules. otherwise linux will just 
use the default gateway.
or you can put the second interface on the same public net of ceph. 
though that would break if you have multiple external nets.

linux will send all packets to the default gateway event if an 
application binds to an ip on different interface, the packet will go 
out with the source address as the binded one but through your router. 
the only solution, even if the bind function exists is to use the 
routing tables and rules.
