Routing Traffic from iPhone to OpenVPN Server

Hello everyone. This is my first post here, so, it's nice to meet all of you!

I'm trying to configure a network in which all traffic enters a server through one router, but all outgoing traffic from that same server is redirected through another router. The traffic being moved around are VPN tunnels.

Here's a diagram:

And, a link to the full-resolution image.
 
There is. Is this possibly, and if so, how can this be accomplished?
 
This should be feasible, assuming you connect to the l2tp VPN first, which has all traffic tunneled, and then from there connect to the openvpn VPN. . . never tried it though... not sure what the behaviors are of those clients on the iphone.
 
Once the Tunnels are up you should be able to treat them as routable paths. I have not done it with OpenVPN however the L2TP then going over an SSL/TLS tunnel happens daily here. From a pure network point of view the tunnels just look like a WAN link.
 
All right, I see. Would some configuration need to be done on VPN Server 1 in order to tell it to route all outgoing traffic through Router 2, or would this all be done purely in the routers?
