Hello,Thank you so much.I found that I need to add the following iptables rule 
for virtual NICs to my iptables rules:
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s $YOUR_OPENVPN_SUBNET -j SNAT --to 
OpenVPN_NIC_IP

I have another question. For each public IP address, I must to rewrite all the 
iptables rules, because each public IP has its own "Tun name", "Port number" 
and "IP Range" in its configuration.
Am I right?
