Can we set a list of discovery nodes?

When starting a new node we have to indicate the address of a root node so as it can connect and discover the network. Is there a way to set a list of nodes so as the new node does not depend on a single peer?

Environment variable: - CORE_PEER_DISCOVERY_ROOTNODE=vp0:7051

Q:Is there a way to set a list of nodes so as the new node does not depend on a single peer?

Answer: new nodes doesn't depend on a single peer and ROOTNODE can be any peer.

from fabric protocol spec,

Upon start up, a peer runs discovery protocol if CORE_PEER_DISCOVERY_ROOTNODE is specified.

CORE_PEER_DISCOVERY_ROOTNODE is the IP address of another peer on the network (any peer) that serves as the starting point for discovering all the peers on the network.
