That would be persist. 

I also use maxfail 0. 

I believe this option makes sure that pppd keeps trying to connect
to your provider if the link dies.

Since adding this option I have been online for 50 days without
intervention. Judging from the amount of traffic received on ppp0 I
gather that the link occasionaly dies, but apparently only when I am
away from my computer. (Very advanced analysis, I know)
