To copy the running configuration to a TFTP server, which command format would you use?

copy running-config tftp:
transfer running-config tftp:
send config tftp:
upload running-config tftp:

The correct answer is: copy running-config tftp:

The correct command to copy the running configuration to a TFTP server is "copy running-config tftp:". This command initiates the process of transferring the current configuration (the running configuration) from the device's memory to a designated TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) server. Using this command provides a straightforward way to back up the device's settings or to transfer configurations between devices. The format consists of the "copy" command, which is commonly used in Cisco IOS to duplicate files or configurations from one location to another, along with the source, which is the running configuration, and the destination, which is the TFTP server indicated by "tftp:". The other choices do not utilize the syntax required in Cisco IOS. They may seem intuitively close but lack the correct structure or keywords established in Cisco networking practices.
