How to forward network traffic through Docker OpenVPN Client?
How do I forward HTTP traffic from an OpenVPN server to a machine on the same local network as the OpenVPN client?Forward one IP to a docker containerRoute IPv6 traffic through OpenVPNPing a openvpn client connected to a docker container from the host of the containerOpenVPN does not create routes inside dockerEnabling Bidirectional traffic over VPN with OpenVPN on AWSRoute traffic from AWS VPC through OpenVPNOpenVPN client on OpenWRT not routing traffic through VPN on Linksys WRT3200ACMRun openvpn inside docker and use as gateway for internet for other networked devicesRoute only SSH traffic through OpenVPN
My current setup is has a docker image running OpenVPN Client that connects to an Access Server in AWS. If i run the command:
docker exec <container-id> bash
I can get into the OpenVPN Container itself and can ping relevant IP's connected to the OpenVPN Server. My question is how would i tell the local machine(ubuntu) to forward all local traffic, say im just doing a ping from outside the container, to go through the Docker0 interface and through the OpenVPN Client?
I've tried setting up a webproxy but I believe setting up the webproxy was to help with other containers forwarding traffic to the OpenVPN container, whereas i need to forward traffic from the local machine.

You need to add routes from your host machine to the destinations you want to be forwarded via the OpenVPN tunnel so that they point to your Docker container IP address.
For example:
route add -net 192.168.1.0/24 gw 172.17.17.1
where 192.168.1.0/24 is the IP network you want to route via Docker container's local IP address 172.17.17.1.
If you cannot control the routing of the machines at the other end of tunnel, you need to set up a reverse route on those machines. Another option is to set up NAT on the Docker container.

Did you use correct IP addresses? Did you add the corresponding reverse route on the destination machine you tried to ping to?

If you have two networks, 192.168.0.0/24 (a) and 192.168.1.0/24 (b), where 192.168.0.1 and 192.168.1.1 are the routers. Then on network a, you need to have route192.168.1.0/24via192.168.0.1, and on network b,192.168.0.0/24via192.168.1.1. The latter one is the reverse rule.
