I don't quite know why you are doing what you are doing, but if you want
to push packets back to an interface, I would recommend using different
subnets on the individual interfaces.
What is the desired path of the packets? L2 switch? L3 router?
Your Linux box can act as a bridge (same function as an L2 switch), so
you need to set up your problem with the correct parameters.
There are fail over scenarios with two NICs in the same subnet,sometimes
with the same address, but that is a specialized condition.
Please be more specific about your objectives.
Cheers, Patrick
