The contents of my current /etc/network/interfaces file are:

# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug wlp3s0
iface wlp7s0 inet static
        wpa-ssid JupiterRising
        wpa-psk {a long string of alphanumeric characters}
        address 192.168.1.99/24
        gateway 192.168.1.1
        # dns-* options are implemented by the resolvconf package, if installed
        dns-nameservers 1.1.1.1 8.8.8.8

Are you saying that I can cut out the above contents and paste them into a file called wlp7s0 (whose path is /etc/network/interfaces.d/)?

Best regards.
