In /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts, the scripts ifup-ppp, 
ifdown-ppp, "ifup eth0" & "ifdown eth0" should do the trick.

Although.....  There's no reason why you can't keep eth0 up
while using the modem.  Just be a little tricky with your
routing table.

At freshmeat, there are many scripts to automaticly generate 
firewall commands.
