Abstract
Methods and systems for complementing network discovery with physical discovery are provided. In one embodiment, a universal physical discovery layer and a legacy network discovery layer are provided. The legacy network discovery layer is implemented using a legacy network discovery protocol. The legacy network discovery layer is separate from and communicates with the universal physical discovery layer. Data representing a physical relationship type between the physical entities is obtained and used to establish the physical relationship type at the universal physical discovery layer.
