This filename is an opportunity to specify a machine specific configuration file.

2) AA[BB[CC]][-ia32|ia64].conf
As of version 3.5, elilo will also look for IPv4 class A,B,C
subnet-specific versions of the config file. This is useful when you
want to have a common config file for all machines connected to a
particular subnet.
For example, if your IP address is 10.0.0.1 (0A000001 in hex), elilo
will look first for 0A000001.conf, then 0A0000.conf, then 0A00.conf,
and finally 0A.conf.
Elilo will also try architecture-specific versions of subnet-specific
config files first (So for example, on an Itanium system,
"0A0000-ia64.conf" will be tried before "0A0000.conf")
3) elilo-ia32.config or elilo-ia64.conf
Depending on the machine (client side) architecture elilo will try the IA-32 or
IA-64 file.

This distinction between the architectures is useful when the same TFTP server services

All files use the same format. Elilo will stop at the first match. In case no file is found,
it will try to download a default kernel file name (vmlinux).
