Safely transferring xenforo site

I am with knownhost and will be downgrading my hosting with them to a cheaper package. Since my forum was initially in vbulletin, I had it migrated to xenforo, and the urls redirected. My concern is that when I downgrade my hosting, I do not know how those urls are redirected. Are they inside the xenforo database somewhere, or done via htaccess file or what?

Just a little nervous about doing a hosting package downgrade.
 
To be clear, what I mean is that I had over a million different pages on my vbulletin site. If someone typed in the url for that forum page it would get redirected to the same forum page on xenforo. Not sure if I was clear on that or not. I need to somehow find out how it is done, else I could lose thousands of links.

In the xenforo admin panel under Add-ons, I do see XenForo Redirects for vBulletin 1.1.5.
 
If you open up your public_html you should see a 301config.php file, if so you are using the scripts.

If not check the .htaccess.
