In Discovery, information is gathered through various network protocols and techniques supported by the device network infrastructure. 

This can include protocols like SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol), ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol), WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation), SSH (Secure Shell), and others.

Let us discover how the Discovery application empowers the IT landscape with comprehensive capabilities to explore, analyze, and seamlessly connect its entire technology infrastructure.

By leveraging these protocols, the Discovery system can query devices and collect relevant information such as device type, operating system, software applications, hardware details, network configurations, and other attributes. This information is typically used for asset management, network monitoring and auditing purposes.
