Hello this box works at internetgateway, so routing is activated.
Since both subnets (192.168.. and 172.16..) are connected directly to
the box, the router "knows" how to route between these subnets and does
it ;-)
(Have a look at route -n)
I think the best (and easiest) way is to use the iptables-Rules as Bruno
