I forgot to mentioned, just to be clear, these IFs are all one node, the same one hos, its routing table:
10.5.6.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 350 0 0 nm-team1 172.25.12.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 100 0 0 p3p3 192.168.2.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 110 0 0 em2 192.168.2.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 111 0 0 em1
no default gateways, so you can see these are directly connected networks
$ traceroute -n 10.5.6.17 -i em1 traceroute to 10.5.6.17 (10.5.6.17), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets 1 10.5.6.17 0.426 ms !X 0.393 ms !X 0.311 ms !X $ traceroute -n 10.5.6.17 -i em2 traceroute to 10.5.6.17 (10.5.6.17), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets 1 10.5.6.17 0.382 ms !X 0.326 ms !X 0.274 ms !X $ traceroute -n 10.5.6.17 -i nm-team1 traceroute to 10.5.6.17 (10.5.6.17), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets 1 10.5.6.17 0.407 ms !X 0.342 ms !X 0.294 ms !X $ traceroute -n 10.5.6.17 -i p3p3 traceroute to 10.5.6.17 (10.5.6.17), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets 1 * * * 2 * * * 3 * * * 4 * * *
I was expecting kernel's network would know best, what to do, especially that: (enp6s0f0 is 10.5.6.17)
root@10.5.6.17 ]$ ping 172.25.12.222 -I enp6s0f0 PING 172.25.12.202 (172.25.12.222) from 10.5.6.17 enp6s0f0: 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 172.25.12.222: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.396 ms
there are two switches and vlans, switches routes auto configured, no default gateways on the switches neither, to try to simplify & troubleshoot.

and nothing, ping waits and no reply, Ctrl+C
with such a simple setup rules based routing should not be involved, kernel should figure it out, right?
you specifically said to send that packet to an interface on the wrong network, of course, its not going to get through, unless there's an external route from that network to the destination. I'm presuming there's a router somewhere else between your 192.168.2.0/24 network and 10.5.6.17, that would enable those ping -I em1/2 commands to work. note that the recipient of the ping needs to have a route to get back to the source, too.
