for which is this constant?
what does to this file "pppconfd" ?

You can see it in the file system as:

$ ls -lh /var/run/pppconfd
srwxrwxrwx   1 root  daemon  0B Jun 15 14:59 /var/run/pppconfd

The "s" in the first column indicates that this is a UNIX domain socket.  PPP listens on this socket for API commands.  This is the point of contact between the (unsupported) "ppplib" library and the PPP daemon that actually does the work.
