Various implementations disclosed herein provide private network driven hosted network device management that enables more robust management of private networks that include such equipment. For example, in some implementations, a method of private network driven hosted network device management includes receiving a fetch request from a compliant device, wherein the fetch request indicates demand for at least one of new and updated configuration data and instructions. In turn, the method further includes assessing whether or not the new and updated configuration data and instructions, for the requesting compliant device, will conflict with local customizations and indicate potential disruption to connectivity and services in an associated private network, in order to produce an assessment result. The method also includes selectively generating a new configuration file including a suitable set of new and updated configuration data and instructions based on the assessment result.
