Any commands/values you enter here will override the value that is configured in the device's global Profile (or anywhere in the global config section).<BR /> This device override section is where it's completely expected to enter a device hostname or the device's static IP address. Those are values that you wouldn't put into a Profile, right? Otherwise, every device that received that Profile would have the same hostname and static IP address.<BR /> Best practice though is to keep as much as possible in the main device global Profile...and only put things into the device override as-needed.
