Hi Denis,
Before I can answer your question, I need to know what you exactly mean
by "Network Discovery"?
Often IP multi-cast was used for that. Nowadays this is often no longer
possible
because switches/router/firewalls block multi-cast packets for security
reasons.
In addition, multi-cast works only with SNMPv1 and v2c (community based) and
SNMPv3 with noAuthNoPriv.
Best regards,
Frank
