When the discovery has completed, the set of discovered devices is listed in the top
panel of the Discovery Results window.

range of devices in the Results list, and click the Add button at the bottom of the
window.
If you select multiple devices, make sure the devices you select are similarly
configured. As part of the Add process, you will be asked for a single password
that will apply to all the selected devices. If the password is specified incorrectly
for any of these devices, the add will fail for those devices.

of devices you are adding.
Make sure the device passwords are correct for the selected devices. If you are
adding multiple devices in one operation, make sure the passwords you specify
are correct for each device. A device cannot be added if the password is not
correct.
