Example Output
Example Ticket Analysis:
Ticket: "My laptop won't connect to WiFi after the latest update"
Priority: Medium-High (user productivity blocked) Category: Connectivity / Network Driver Quick Diagnosis: Likely driver conflict from OS update. Try rolling back WiFi driver. Escalation Risk: Low (common issue, fixable at L1) Response: "Hi [User], thanks for reporting. This is a known issue after today's update. Let's roll back your WiFi driver: [steps]. If this doesn't work, we'll escalate to our wireless team."
Example Escalation Decision:
Ticket: "Exchange mailbox quota exceeded, need access to archive system"
Verdict: Escalate to L2 (Mailbox Admin) Reason: Requires administrative access and archive policy review; beyond L1 scope Recommended SLA: 4-hour response time Context for L2: User has 15GB data; previous archive was 2 years ago; monthly growth = 800MB
