Abstract: A network configuration method, an apparatus, and a computer-readable storage medium are provided, and belong to the field of communication technologies. The method includes: A first execution device sends a device discovery message to a management device. The device discovery message is a layer 2 packet and includes a first port identifier, where a port identified by the first port identifier is a port, in an up state, of the first execution device (301). The first execution device receives a first configuration message from the management device. The first configuration message is a layer 2 packet and includes a configuration parameter for a second execution device. The configuration parameter includes an internet protocol address of the second execution device, and the second execution device is connected to the port identified by the first port identifier (303). The first execution device sends the first configuration message through the port identified by the first port identifier (302). The execution device and the management device may discover a new device by themselves, deliver a configuration parameter, and complete network configuration on the discovered device, to save a large amount of manpower and improve network configuration efficiency.
