PPP + SuSE Firewall

Hey, I have a friend who has a ppp connection from his SuSE box. However, he's also running a firewall on this box, but he has to restart the firewall when he logs on to the internet via the ppp connection. I've once seen somewhere that you don't have to restart the firewall every time you connect via ppp. Is this true, and if so where is the option located at so I can reconfigure this for him.
