Work with Diagnostic Providers

Diagnostic Providers allow us to query the startup configuration, current configuration, and current state of a diagnostic domain. In addition, Diagnostic Providers can also provide access to any self diagnostic tests available from a diagnostic domain.

The Diagnostic Provider Utility is a simple front end in the administration console that presents the available set of Diagnostic Providers and allows us to work with them.
