Ubuntu server 16.04, fresh install on x64. Here the topology:
internet router (192.168.1.254) ---- enp0s7 (192.168.1.69) host (192.168.0.70) ----- enp1s8 (192.168.0.69)
Internet works ok but I can’t ping 192.168.0.70, only arp ping.
/etc/network/interfaces (note the comments):

I think doesn’t matter but ipforward is YES.
Why I can’t reach on level 3 host 192.168.0.70? What I’m doing wrong? I think for what I know and what I read on the web this is the right configuration…doesn’t work also uncommenting “up route add -net 192.168.0.0/24 dev enp1s8”

192.168.0.0 is a local only subnet so you won’t be able to ping out or in to it.
Only other hosts on the same subnet would be able to ping each other. That is why you are having the issue.
