Hello Benda,

Actually this is not my convention. This is piggybacking on the systemd
convention
In the current system (openrc) net.eth0 is a symlink to net.lo and the
interface is deduced at run-time and appropriate action is taken.
In systemd instantiated services work in the same way. Symlink to the
original service and the @ part is passed as a parameter and I guess it is
supposed to be used the same way too i.e. the @ part is to be  seen as an
variable. So I thought this would be the best way to represent it in
systemd setting.

Hope this makes sense.
