 If you believe that NetworkManager should be allowed read access on
 the sysctl.conf file by default.
 Then you should report this as a bug.

^^

That's what you want to do.

The sealert wizard lets you file a denial as a bug. Do that, include
your explanation in the bug, and you'll get a response very quickly -
SELinux team is very efficient at handling these. Thanks for the report!

Alert from turning off/on wireless

If you believe that NetworkManager should be allowed read access on
the sysctl.conf file by default.
Then you should report this as a bug.
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# grep NetworkManager /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp
