When the server *originates* traffic, it will use the main routing
table, and that's why traffic goes out of em1. There's no rule telling
the server that when the traffic is initiated by the server, it must
consult a different routing table, t1.
One way to ensure that all the monitoring traffic goes through bond0, is
to configure every service with an explicit source address. However,
some services allow this, and some don't, so this quickly becomes
cumbersome.
What you probably want to do is to invert your rules and routes, so that
the bond0 interface is in the main table, and you put your management
interface, em1, into another table (t1). Then, when you ssh into the
server, it will use em1, but all other traffic will use bond0 by default.

Anand
