Which of the following storage devices is used to store the startup configuration files in a router?
The correct storage device used to store the startup configuration files in a router is NVRAM (Non-Volatile Random-Access Memory). NVRAM retains its data even when the router is powered off, making it suitable for storing configuration files that need to persist across reboots. SDRAM is used for temporary data storage and is volatile, losing its contents when powered off. Flash memory is typically used to store the router's operating system images and other large files. BootROM stores the router's bootloader software which is used during the router initialization process.
The correct answer should be C. Flash not NVRAM. Start-up config file store in flash.
Start-up config can be a modified version of the factory config, this changes are also in the current start-up config saved and would never be in the flash. The startup-config transist from nvram to flash in the progress of the startup.
