By default devices residing in different subnets will not be discovered as the standard discovery mechanism uses broadcasts into the local subnet. Therefore devices residing in different subnets will not show up without additional configuration since broadcasts don't cross routers thus are not forwarded into different subnets.
Using IPConfigure's "Setup Unicast Device Discovery Destinations" dialog allows to specify the known IPv4 address of each device which shall be discovered in a different subnet.
Select the "Action" menu item and click on "Set Up Unicast Device Discovery".
A dialog will open, where the destination IP addresses of the devices to be discovered can be entered.
Select the interface through which the devices in the different subnet will be reachable by using the "Interfaces" drop-down menu. This interface must be able to reach the target subnet of course so has to be connected to the corresponding router and/or switch.
Enter the IPv4 addresses of devices which shall be discovered.
To modify the settings the dialog can be used. To disable the device discovery in different subnets just select the correct interface and clear the table using the "Clear" button.
