Abstract
An example disclosed is directed to a switch. The switch includes a communication interface and a discovery module. The discovery module is to receive a registration request for bulk discovery from an initiator device via the communication interface. The discovery module is further to receive a change indication specifying that a change has occurred in a fabric associated with the switch, and update a data model based on the received change indication to generate an updated data model. The discovery module then filters the updated data model to generate a filtered data model, and sends the filtered data model to the initiator device via the communication interface.
