Can I create .config file and include it to web.config?
How can i do this?

UPD.
If you want to separate config file, for example, move appSettings to another file you must do next: In web.config

  <appSettings configSource="myAppSettings.config" />

In myAppSettings.config:

  <appSettings>
    <add key="ClientValidationEnabled" value="true" />
    <add key="UnobtrusiveJavaScriptEnabled" value="true" />
  </appSettings>

Method 1

It is not entirely clear what you want to do, but all configuration sections can be stored in a separate files and be referenced by the main .config file using the configSource property.

See this blog post for details.

Method 2

This is the way to integrate multiple configs into one web.config

Code in web.config:

<appSettings configSource="configappSettings.config"/>
<nlog configSource="confignlog.config"/>
<applicationSettings>
        <MyApp.UI.Properties.Settings configSource="configSettings.APGUI.config"/>
        <MyApp.BusinessServices.Properties.Settings configSource="configSettings.Business.config"/>
        <MyApp.Auditing.Properties.Settings configSource="configSettings.Auditing.config"/>
</applicationSettings>
