Is there a tools like Cheops or ??? That I can use to discover these other
subnets? 

With IPv4, active discovery is going to be difficult at best. The
simpliest solution is probably to run something like Arpwatch. It
monitors broadcasts traffic, and gives you the MAC/IP address pairing of
every detected system. The log entries will clearly show which subnets
are local.
