I am trying to figure out my public IP inside the route-up script. To do so I need to make a connection through the channel, but for some reason it fails. Can anyone confirm that it is impossible to use a channel from the route-up script yet?

For example a 'traceroute -i tun0 8.8.8.8' fails if run from route-up script

ALL scripts launched by openvpn must complete before the tunnel will pass any further data.

It is a security measure.
