Thanks to everyone who responded. This led to some interesting reading and 
learning, but it hasn’t avoided the reboot.

I found this page on udev:
How to reload udev rules without 
reboot?<http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/39370/how-to-reload-udev-rules-without-reboot>
http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/39370/how-to-reload-udev-rules-without-reboot

Sounds perfect for my question, but at least one server I tried all the 
suggestions on, it didn’t change anything. A reboot is a “magic sauce,” but 
it’s nice to know how to avoid this with servers. If I find another solution 
that works for me, I’ll post it.

I learned this to control the MAC address so that the IPv6 suffix for my servers was more to my liking and I could use an RA prefix.

All,

I am trying to understand better how you give an interface a more descriptive 
name and get it all working without a reboot, if possible.

I actually wrote a small tutorial on how to do just this.

I think you missed the "without a reboot" part.  :)

Supposedly you can restart udev and then networkservices
