Network Versus Host Configuration Files
configuration for the device is a mixture of the original startup configuration and the one or two downloaded
configuration files.
Network Versus Host Configuration Files
For historical reasons, the first file the device downloads is called the network configuration file. The second
file the device downloads is called the host configuration file. Two configuration files can be used when all
of the devices on a network use many of the same commands. The network configuration file contains the
standard commands used to configure all of the devices. The host configuration files contain the commands
specific to one particular host. If you are loading two configuration files, the host configuration file should
be the configuration file you want to have precedence over the other file. Both the network and host
configuration files must reside on a network server reachable via TFTP, RCP, or FTP, and must be readable.
