1. A device comprising:
a first connector that, when connected to a deployed target system, automatically triggers the target system to enter a diagnostic mode, the first connector to receive, while the target system is in the diagnostic mode, diagnostic information transmitted from the target system without having been first stored in a local memory of the target system; and
a second connector to send the diagnostic information, received from the target system via the first connector, to a computing system, wherein the device comprises a removable peripheral interface between the deployed target system and the computing system.
