Is it correct that the 192.168.0.0 network is behind the router? Which
network is in front of the router (especially if I use the loopback

If I change the configuration to the following:

 > route 192.168.0.1 link 192.168.1.0/24

IMO, since you haven't specified entry to which network, honeyd is
assuming all networks are on the inner side of the router. If you add
the network to the first line like this -

route entry 192.168.0.1 network 192.168.0.0/16

honeyd knows which networks are behind the router and which networks
are directly connected to the router. Can anybody confirm this?
