If this is not what you want, then it just means the routing table on
Host2 is not configured as you would like it to be.

Generally speaking you can receive packets on one interface while
sending packets using a different interface... anything is possible,
you just need to know what you want to do.

You might think wrong. The second connection definitely seems
initiated by HostOther, 41725 looking like a random port assigned by
the operating system.

It seems that with iperf, the connecting/initiating side is always the
data sending side. Both for upstream and downstream tests.


Hope this helps.
