If you do not want to have the broadcast traffic on your net, use the ucast 
statement in ha.cf

Use: Redundancy of heartbeat path.

Setup:
on node1:
bcast eth0
ucast eth1 <ip address of node2 on eth0>

on node2:
bcast eth0
ucast eth1 <ip address of node1 on eth0>

But anyway, using the resources net for heartbeat communication is not the 
best idea. Better add a interface card to you server and user additionally 
eth2.

By the way: When adding a new IF to the node you also could upgrade from 2.1.3 
to pacemaker.
