LXC behind a commercial VPN

[nicoska]

I tried to search for this topic, but didn't find anything useful.

Here is what I'd like to achieve: I have a container, currently working without an issue. I'd like to "put" this container behind a commercial VPN services that I'm using on other devices. The VPN service I'm using support OpenVPN and IPsec protocols.

Thank you for your help

I'm answering myself here
I was able to install OpenVPN client in the container (Step 3 here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Linux_Containers/Using_VPNs) and I was also able to manually connect to the VPN service.

Now the only thing I'm missing is to auto-connect when container boot. Does anyone know which is the best way? (container is based on Debian 12)

thank you
