Same bat handbook, but bat chapter 1

This sample paragraph stands out

"Gentoo's RC system now knows about that interface. It also needs to know how 
to configure the new interface. All the network interfaces are configured 
in /etc/conf.d/net"

So yes it does.

Also, /etc/conf.d/net.example is a dead giveaway for maybe /etc/conf.d/net?

Nah, too obvious.

Thanks
