Refoss Integration can't discover EM16 on a different VLAN

The problem

The Refoss integration opens a port on 9989 and then sends a broadcast 255.255.255.255 on port 9988. The broadcast can't cross from one broadcast domain (HA primary IP's network) into any other broadcast domain, even if HA has a secondary interface on a an IOT VLAN. So, in short, there is no way to discover a device that's on an IOT VLAN.

Can we please have the Refoss integration use mDNS or at least broadcast on all interfaces that HA has?
