Abstract
Techniques for the discovery of a topology of varying complexity and discovery of the capability of the devices of the topology include querying a plurality of node devices for node data. At least an initial portion of node data of one or more node devices is received in response to the query. In addition, previously determined node data is retrieved from a cache. The initial portion of node data is correlated to the previously determined node data to deduce node data for one or more node devices within a predetermined period of time. It is to be appreciated that the deduced node data may include node data beyond the initial portion of node data and/or node data for other node devices beyond the initially responding node devices. The deduced node data may then be reported to an operating system.
