>From 'man ppp':

add[!] dest[/nn] [mask] [gateway]

For example:
add 10.0.0.0/24 192.168.0.1

I think you can add this in ppp.linkup under the correct group, but if =
that fails then it can go in ppp.conf

Add the '!' if the route already exists, as it then will perform a route =
change and not fail on route already existing.
