"For historical reasons, the first file the router downloads is called
the network configuration file. The second file the router downloads is
called the host configuration file. Two configuration files can be used
when all of the routers on a network use many of the same commands. The
network configuration file contains the standard commands used to
configure all of the routers. The host configuration files contain the
commands specific to one particular host."

This is an interesting email thread going back and forth. Having no
need to go to the dictionary because I know what all those words mean, I
am still trying to understand this in the context of a 'config file'. I
would suppose a router-specific config file is one that is, well
specific to that router! That's easy. But what is a 'network-wide'
config file? It doesn't say network wide 'command' it says 'config
file'. I just don't get it!

Are you studying for the lab?

If come across the term "router specific" then they are referring to
that particular router. Like configure..configure a loopback interface
that is specific to a router or configure a loopback interface that
reflects the local router characteristics. In a lab they ask you to
configure R1 as a NTP server, the NTP server is being configured on R1
and the commands are being entered on R1, right? If we were to configure
the command:

!
int s0
clock rate 500000
ip add 10.0.100.1 255.255.128.0
encap frame
frame lmi-type ansi
no ip split
no shut
!

1. is "clock rate 500000" command configured on R1 router specific or
not? Does it effect R2 (remote router) ? 2. is the ip add router
specific/local...can you use the same address on another interface, try
entering it on a router, what happens?(using a standard
config)
3. if I enter 'Encap Frame' on a router, does the same command get
entered automatically on the remote router?

Now Network-wide..when you configure a OSPF network with 3 routers, do
enter the command 'router ospf x' on all 3 routers? When you configure a
BGP peering between 2 BGP routers, can you do it without using 'router
bgp x' command?

I am not being rude, but you really need to read a dictionary...not all
words are Cisco/network 'specific'. Cisco did not dream up these words.
Take the words apart..specific: meaning single, individual, local,
confined, singular, island, targeted, aimed, geared towards. The meaning
of 'wide'...broad, extensive, open, ample, spacious.

Hope you understand the meaning of the words now, if you don't sorry I
can't help you any more.

Later, Jbell

      Sorry for interrupt, can you clarify it more ?

      Thanks

router-specific being just on that router and nothing else, like a
island. Network-wide means across the network. should distinguish if
this means across specific protocol like OSPF network-wide or generally
across the network, in which case - all devices that make up the
implementation. If u need more clarity, let me know and mail me offline.

  Hi,

I just failed in the first attempt. By the way can anyone tell me what
is the difference between Router-specific config file and
    Network-wide
  config file?
