A. B. C. D.

D

The correct answer is D. commit.

Explanation:

In Junos, when you make changes to the device configuration, those changes are stored in a "candidate configuration" until you activate them. This allows you to make multiple changes to the configuration before committing them all at once.

To activate the configuration changes and make them active on the device, you need to use the commit command. The commit command takes the changes that you've made to the candidate configuration and applies them to the active configuration.

You can also use the commit command with various options to control how the changes are committed. For example, you can use the commit confirmed command to activate the changes, but with a time limit for you to confirm the changes before they become permanent.

The other answer choices are not correct:

A. set is a command used to make changes to the configuration, but it does not activate the changes.

B. copy candidate active is a command used to copy the candidate configuration to the active configuration, but it does not activate any changes you've made.

C. apply-config is not a valid Junos command.
