+   - On ``mongos``, the ``config`` database shows collections
+     located on the config servers, such as
+     :data:`~config.collections` or :data:`~config.chunks`.
+
+   - On ``mongod``, the ``config`` database shows
+     collections specific to the given shard, such as
+     :data:`~config.migrationCoordinators` or
+     :data:`~config.rangeDeletions`.
+
+   When a config server and a shard are hosted on the same node,
+   :program:`mongos` may have access to some shard-local
+   collections in the ``config`` database.
