Scanning remote networks with NMAP is possible (via the `NMAPDEV` plugin), but since it cannot retrieve the MAC address, you need to enable the `NMAPDEV_FAKE_MAC` setting. This will generate a fake MAC address based on the IP address, allowing you to track devices. However, this can lead to inconsistencies, especially if the IP address changes or a previously logged device is rediscovered. If this setting is disabled, only the IP address will be discovered, and devices with missing MAC addresses will be skipped.
