## Objective ## Objective
To streamline troubleshooting of remote Internet-in-a-Box (IIAB) installations, we bundle up common machine/software diagnostics, all together in 1 human-readable small file, that can be easily circulated online AND offline. Just FYI Raspberry Pi OS's [/usr/bin/raspinfo](https://github.com/raspberrypi/utils/blob/master/raspinfo/raspinfo) serves a very similar purpose, but we do not include that program's 700-to-800 line output at present. To streamline troubleshooting of remote Internet-in-a-Box (IIAB) installations, we bundle up common machine/software diagnostics, all together in 1 human-readable file of about 2000 lines, that can be easily circulated online AND offline.
Passwords (including Wi-Fi passwords) are auto-redacted from this file, to protect your community confidentiality.

Finally, the ``pastebinit`` command can then be used to auto-upload this file, creating a short URL that makes it much easier to circulate among [volunteers](http://internet-in-a-box.org/pages/contributing.html). For a more concise "instant" summary of any IIAB machine (about 20-25 lines) try this command instead: [/usr/bin/iiab-summary](iiab-summary)
