What is the command for taking a backup from the CLI?

The command for taking a backup from the CLI is "config_backup." This command is specifically designed to create a backup of the current configuration settings of the SonicWall appliance. Using this command ensures that all the settings configured on the device are recorded and can be restored if needed in the future.

In the context of SonicWall appliances, running the "config_backup" command allows administrators to save critical network configurations, making it easier to recover from potential system failures or configuration errors. This feature is essential for maintaining continuity and mitigating the risks associated with configuration changes.

The other options, while they may seem plausible, do not align with the established command structure for SonicWall devices. For instance, "backup_config" and "backup_data" do not correspond to existing commands, and "save_configuration" is not the syntax recognized by the device’s CLI for backing up configurations. Therefore, "config_backup" is the correct and valid option for this operation.
