Which choice best describes a horizontal discovery pattern?

In ServiceNow Discovery, a horizontal discovery pattern refers to the logical set of steps that the Discovery process executes to find CI information across the network. Each step in a horizontal discovery pattern performs specific operations such as running probes, executing commands, or querying databases to gather information about the configuration items (CIs). It's about expanding the breadth of discovery across devices and applications, rather than going in-depth into a specific CI's details, which would be vertical discovery. Classifiers, credential depots, and port scanning tools are part of the discovery process but do not describe the horizontal discovery pattern itself.
