$ man ppp
...
         proxyall
             Default: Disabled.  Enabling this will tell ppp to add proxy arp
             entries for every IP address in all class C or smaller subnets
             routed via the tun interface.

             Proxy arp entries are only made for sticky routes that are added
             using the ``add'' command.  No proxy arp entries are made for the
             interface address itself (as created by the ``set ifaddr'' com-
             mand).
