Which type of devices does Discovery classify by functionality?

Discovery classifies devices based on their functionality, and this classification encompasses both computers and network devices. This comprehensive approach allows for a more holistic understanding of the IT landscape within an organization. By recognizing the functionality of various devices, Discovery can accurately identify and categorize assets, ensuring that organizations can manage their IT infrastructure effectively.

Computers, which include servers and workstations, perform tasks and run applications, while network devices, such as routers and switches, facilitate communication and connectivity in networks. By including both categories, Discovery ensures that it accounts for all aspects of an IT environment, catering to the diverse needs of modern enterprises. This functionality-based classification aids in more effective network tracking, resource allocation, and trouble-shooting, ultimately enhancing the overall management and visibility of devices within an organization.
