Use relative links that work locally and in production

Browse Source 
At present, a mix of link types are used in the Netbox
documentation from markdown file links to relative and
absolute anchor links.

Of the three types, linking to markdown files is the
most ideal because it allows navigation locally on disk,
as well as being translated into working links at render
time.

While not obvious, mkdocs handles converting markdown
links to valid URLs.

### Excluding Config Contexts
When retrieving devices and virtual machines via the REST API, each will included its rendered [configuration context data](../models/extras/configcontext/) by default. Users with large amounts of context data will likely observe suboptimal performance when returning multiple objects, particularly with very high page sizes. To combat this, context data may be excluded from the response data by attaching the query parameter `?exclude=config_context` to the request. This parameter works for both list and detail views.

The maximum number of objects that can be returned is limited by the [`MAX_PAGE_SIZE`](../../configuration/optional-settings/#max_page_size) configuration parameter, which is 1000 by default. Setting this to `0` or `None` will remove the maximum limit. An API consumer can then pass `?limit=0` to retrieve _all_ matching objects with a single request.

Disabling the page size limit introduces a potential for very resource-intensive requests, since one API request can effectively retrieve an entire table from the database.

### Creating a New Object
To create a new object, make a `POST` request to the model's _list_ endpoint with JSON data pertaining to the object being created. Note that a REST API token is required for all write operations; see the [authentication documentation](../authentication/) for more information. Also be sure to set the `Content-Type` HTTP header to `application/json`.

In order to encrypt or decrypt secret data, a session key must be attached to the API request. To generate a session key, send an authenticated request to the `/api/secrets/get-session-key/` endpoint with the private RSA key which matches your [UserKey](../../core-functionality/secrets/#user-keys). The private key must be POSTed with the name `private_key`.
