A classifier is a set of rules that identifies a device type based on the results of a probe. A classifier can have one or more related lists that define the classification criteria, the pattern probes, and the triggers probes. The pattern probes related list specifies which horizontal discovery pattern to run for the device type. The triggers probes related list specifies which probes to run after the device is classified, and before the horizontal discovery pattern is executed. The triggers probes can be used to gather additional information or credentials that are needed for the horizontal discovery pattern12.
