The files in /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ are intended to be used by RedHat's network configuration tool - redhat-config-network. These files should not be used by system administrator directly (e.g. should not be edited manually). All these files are modified with the use of configuration tool. These files could be considered as the internal data of that tool, which are not used by other programs (and not used in the network configuration process during system boot). The information from files in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ is used by the initscripts during the system boot process. The information from files in that directory is the network configuration which is actually used during the network configuration.
