The CLI command is

Copy running-config startup-config

Or the much easier old time command "write memory" .

Not sure why they decided to substitute some easier commands like write mem or specially write net for some long convoluted string they want you to use now .

It is asking you for a file name in case you want to save the config separately. The default filename is "startup-config", which is the one it will read when it boots. Just hit ENTER.

Destination filename [startup-config]?

and how can I find out the name of the startup-config file ?
