I just had success in configuring a net specific route to ppp0 with an
ISP connection here using
/sbin/route add -net ${NETWORK} netmask ${NETMASK} ppp0
and I could ping machines on the ISPs lan. This should direct allow access
to the lan on the other end of the ppp connection but not beyond it. I
assume, because you want to maintain the lan default route, that your
machine is attached to a lan with an internet connection. You can put this
in /etc/ppp/ip-up to add the route, and then delete it in /etc/ppp/ip-down
- or whatever the equivalents are for RedHat.
