Surveyor provides diagnostic information that is general to all networks. However,

you can customize the diagnostic information to suit your environment.
As you use any diagnostic system you may find that certain error events occur
regularly and or that events have a unique meaning in your environment. Custom
solutions may apply to fixing the problems that are indicated by expert symptoms.
By customizing the diagnostic information, you build an “information base” that
applies to your particular environment. When the same problems occur, the custom
information displays as well as standard information, providing the diagnostician
with the benefit of previous experience related to your particular network.
