Just some additions regarding the debug output. The "LINKS" table 
contains all links to our neighbours. It has the following columns.

* "IP address" - our neighbour's IP address
* "hyst" - the current hysteresis value, 0.0 if hysteresis is disabled
* "LQ" - the link quality that we have determined on our side of the link
* "lost" - the number of lost packets among our neighbour's most 
recently sent 10 packets
* "total" - the total number of packets sent by our neighbour (counts up 
to 10 and stays there as we always only look at the most recent ten packets)
* "NLQ" - the link quality that our neighbour has determined on its side 
of the link

The value LQ is 1 - (lost / total).

The "NEIGHBORS" table contains information about the link and the 
neighbour status.

* "LQ" - the same as above
* "NLQ" - the same as above
* "SYM" - this column contains "SYM" if the link to the neighbour is 
symmetric and is otherwise empty
* "MPR" - this column contains "MPR" if the neighbour has been selected 
as an MPR and is oitherwise empty
* "will" - the willingness of the neighbour
