Explanation

To copy a configuration to a host external from Panorama, you must use 'Export a named configuration snapshot.' This operation exports the configuration file (XML) to an external destination such as a local workstation or SCP/FTP server. 'Save a configuration snapshot' only saves it locally on Panorama's disk. 'Save a candidate configuration' also saves locally. 'Commit a running configuration' pushes changes to managed devices but does not transfer the config file to an external host.
