CustomAppServer to support script-based discovery mode

Bendigo and Adelaide Bank Limited (BABL) have worked with Aricent (an IBM development partner) over the last 12 months to create the ability to discover devices behind firewalls by utilising our BigFix infrastructure - this removes the need to implement anchor gateways, or punch holes in the firewalls.
This has been achieved, and is working well. However, this supports script-based discovery only. The main issue with this so far is that we do not have the option of running the CustomAppServer Sensor, as it does not support script-based discovery.
To ensure that AASD discovery via BigFix infrastructure becomes a viable option, sensors like CustomAppServer need to be modified to support script-based discovery.
