How to Display Running and Startup Configuration
The current version of
the configuration file the device runs on is Running-Configuration. The file
contains all recent changes you’ve made to the configuration since the last
device reboot, while no changes applied to the startup configuration. The
Startup-Configuration is when the configuration of devices runs on as the
power-up or reboot.
Startup or
pre-configuration will be copied from NVRAM into RAM once the IOS is loaded and
up and running. This file copy will be placed into RAM; this process is called Running-Configuration.

Startup-config is not present
Note: It is showing the earlier
mentioned because the startup-config file is empty. Copy first the
Running-config into Startup-Config to see the Startup-config (NVRAM).
