site-subnet affinity needs to be updated to reflect the client's subnet in AD and associating it with an appropriate site.

When running dcdiag I am running into this error, I understand the error basically (tell me if I am wrong) means there is a subnet that is not associated with a site and pc's are contacting the DC.  However, I have looked and all the subnets I believe are in the sites.  My question is how do I find out what subnet those 451 connections are from.  Or what is the easiest way to resolve this issue?

During the past 4.22 hours there have been 451 connections to this Domain Controller from client machines whose IP addresses don't map to any of th
 existing sites in the enterprise.

Thank you very much!
