Explanation
The 'Export device state' operation bundles the running configuration along with additional device-specific state information such as certificates, licenses, and HA state into a single archive. This operation is only available directly on the firewall (Device > Setup > Operations) and cannot be performed through Panorama because Panorama does not have visibility into or control over a device's full local state. The other options - Load configuration version, Save candidate config, and Load named configuration snapshot - are all operations available through both Panorama and the firewall directly.
