There's definitely race conditions between creation of interface and
setting of sysctls at boot, so I agree - I don't think I would use sysctl.d
for any of those interface settings except default/all.
I also don't know if an interface goes away and comes back again (
think ppp, dummy, VPNs, etc) if it gets the same sysctl settings as
you set last time or if it just gets the "default" ones all over
again. I suspect the latter.
So yeah, multiple reasons to not try setting per-interface sysctls
in sysctl.d.
Cheers,
Andy
