MikroTik RouterOS supports two types of configuration backups:

* /system backup - creates a binary image including all settings, passwords, and sensitive data.
Option analysis:
* A.#Incorrect-Export does NOT include passwords or Winbox credentials for security reasons
* B.#Correct-Exported .rsc files are plain-text and editable
* C.#Incorrect-The export file is automatically named (e.g., export.rsc) unless redirected manually Extract from MTCNA Course Material - Backup vs Export:
"Export is a plain-text script file that can be edited and reused. It does not contain encrypted passwords or user credentials." Extract from Rene Meneses MTCNA Study Guide - Backup and Restore:
"Use export to create editable configurations. It excludes sensitive data like passwords." Extract from Terry Combs Notes - Configuration Export:
"Export is readable, editable, and ideal for replicating setups. Passwords and some private info are excluded."
