Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 6:
7. The system as recited in claim 1, wherein to attempt to communicate with the at least some ports of the at least some network addresses using the plurality of different application-layer communication protocols, the one or more protocol inspection components are further configured to:
determine, for individual port and network address combinations, a probabilistic match of successful communication against individual ones of the plurality of application-layer communication protocols based at least in part on a port number of the individual port, and a transport layer protocol used by the one or more discovery components in communicating with the individual port and network address combination; and
attempt to communicate with the individual port and network address combinations using one or more of the plurality of application-layer communication protocols that has the highest probabilistic match of successful communication for that particular the individual port and network address combination.
