Claim 13:
14. The method as recited in claim 11, wherein the attempting to communicate with the at least some ports of the at least some network addresses using the plurality of different application-layer communication protocols further comprises:
sending one or more data probes to at least one of the ports at at least one of the network addresses;
receiving data from the at least one network address in response to the sent data probe;
determining, using the received data from the at least one network address, a probabilistic match of successful communication against individual ones of the plurality of application-layer communication protocols; and
attempting to communicate with the at least one port at the at least one network address using one or more of the plurality of application-layer communication protocols that has the highest probabilistic match of successful communication.
