What command is used to save the running configuration to the working directory?

• A. writememory
• B. copy running-config working
• C. copy running-config startup-config
• D. show running-config

Answer: (B)

Saving the running configuration to the working directory means taking the active, in-RAM config and writing it to a nonvolatile file named “working” on the device’s storage. This creates a persistent copy of the current settings that can be used or later modified without affecting the live running config until you load it back. The command copies the running configuration into that file, which is specifically targeting the working file in the filesystem.

The other options don’t place the config into that working file: one writes the running config to startup memory (startup-config) or simply displays the current running configuration, and another is an older alias for saving to nonvolatile startup memory.
