This is done pretty much the same as assigning a second IP address to the system. In this case, however, you should assign that IP to a container, not to the host system (using vzctl set CTID --ipadd x.x.x.x --save). Usually, this is all what's required. Surely this x.x.x.x IP address should be routable to your box (i.e. you can not assign arbitrary addresses -- use only those dedicated to you by your hosting/colocation/Internet provider).
Note that
1. Host system acts as a router for container, so traffic goes through the host system anyway.
2. If you don't want host system to be used as a router, you can use it as a bridge. See http://wiki.openvz.org/Veth for details.
3. If you don't want container's traffic to go through host system, you can assign a real network card/interface to that container, as described in this thread by vaverin.
Finally, see http://wiki.openvz.org/Category:Networking
