Connect server to the internet via VPN

Hi,

My ISP gives me a dynamic IP adres. That's ok for most things and I would like to keep it that way. I can also use IPv6, but they are also dynamic.
Just for 1 development server I have at home I need a static IP for the directadmin control panel, and some other stuff.

I have a VPN with a static IP.

How can I configure my UTM 9 so my development server will use the VPN? (Just the development server) I don't want to use the VPN for my normal internet.

Directadmin says

Your server IP must be an external IP address. Local IP addresses (192.168.x.x or 10.0.x.x) will not work. The IP in your network device must be the same IP in your license file, as well as the public IP that connects to our system

Can someone put me on the right path?
Thanks! [:)]

Ok, I got the packet-loss problem solved, I removed all settings from the second network interface.
Now I have

The 5.175.***.*** is my VPN IP
I can start the install of directadmin, but it's unable to download from their servers trough that interface.
It' can't work because I'm using the VPN IP in my interface.

Any idea how I can let this work?
