What occurs when a load?command is issued?What occurs when a ? load?command is issued?
The correct answer is D. the running configuration is replaced by the configuration in the files, but only if they are. The load command on F5 BIG-IP replaces the entire running configuration with the configuration stored in files, but only after validation checks pass.

Why each option
The load command on F5 BIG-IP replaces the entire running configuration with the configuration stored in files, but only after validation checks pass.
The load command replaces the entire running configuration, not just portions of it; partial targeted changes require individual TMSH modify or create commands.
Persisting the running configuration to disk files describes the 'save sys config' command, which is the inverse of the load operation.
Comparing the running configuration to stored files and reporting differences is a diff or verify operation, not the behavior of the load command.
The 'load sys config' command replaces the active running configuration with the saved configuration from disk files, but only proceeds when the configuration is syntactically valid and internally consistent, preventing a broken configuration from being applied to the live system.
