I don't think so (I think I didn't make myself clear). Olsrd sends all the 
packets destined to the same destination to the same next hop (until, at 
least, the topology changes, but that doesn't happen on a per-packet basis). 
However my concern, now, is not about these differences, but about the 
possibility for me to pass neighbors and links on to olsrd. 
I think things should be ok if I add that information from inside a plugin. Do 
you agree? 

Thanks
