Non-privileged SSH commands during probe-based discovery

These tables display the SSH commands run by Discovery probes on target devices during horizontal discovery. These SSH commands don’t require elevated privileges to run.

Operating systems

For information on commands used by Service Mapping during the top-down discovery, see Service Mapping commands requiring a privileged user and Service Mapping commands not requiring a privileged user.
