man ppp(8) [followed by "/LOGGING FACILITY" (no quotes) within the man
page].
Cf the "set cd" command, and decide if it's relevant to you.

From ppp(8):
set openmode active|passive [delay]
By default, openmode is always active with a one second delay.
That is, ppp will always initiate LCP/IPCP/CCP negotiation one
second after the line comes up. If you want to wait for the peer
to initiate negotiations, you can use the value passive. If you
want to initiate negotiations immediately or after more than one
second, the appropriate delay may be specified here in seconds.

Do you really need this (sticky routes aren't operational in you ppp
version or I am missing something) ?
Please have a look at ppp(8) and see if something else meets your=20
needs.
To start your ppp automatically, you should write such a script as
# -ddialing myisp
#!/bin/sh
ppp -ddial ONE_OF_MY_ISP_LABELS_IN_PPP.CONF
You will choose the option most appropriate for your specific
situation (cf ppp(8)). And you will probably put your "ppp" user in
the network group. You aren't going to the 'Net as root, are you ? :-)
And don't forget to set the script execute permission!
Best of luck,
Salvo
