Step 2 To add another seed node to the seed file, enter the name or IP address of the seed node in the IP Address,
Address range, Subnet, CIDR, or DNS Hostname field, and click Add Node.
Step 3 To delete a seed node from the seed file, select the seed node and click Delete Node.

for confirmation.

If you enter a seed node IP address or name in the IP Address, Address range,
Subnet, CIDR, or DNS Hostname field, then click Next, MWTM automatically
adds the seed node before displaying the Discovery tab.
