$ man pppd
[ search for persist ]
holdoff n
Specifies how many seconds to wait before re-initiating the link
after it terminates. This option only has any effect if the
persist or demand option is used. The holdoff period is not
applied if the link was terminated because it was idle.
idle n Specifies that pppd should disconnect if the link is idle for
n seconds. The link is idle when no data packets (i.e. IP
packets) are being sent or received. Note: it is not
advisable to use this option with the persist option without the
demand option. If the active-filter option is given, data
packets which are rejected by the specified activity filter also
count as the link being idle.
You're welcome.
