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 
Leonhardt has written!
