Reviewer Comment  AB1: Terminology and Definition Related
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
In [1] the olsrv2-interface runs the NHDP, and some terms in [1] are
defined as in [2]:

Interface:
A router’s attachment to a communications medium. An interface is
assigned one or more addresses.

MANET interface:
An interface participating in a MANET and using this neighborhood
discovery protocol. A router may have several MANET interfaces.

Link:
A link between two MANET interfaces exists if either can be heard by the other.

These above terms’ definitions are different than in [4, 5, and 6].
The reviewer may understand links are logical or/and physical as
defined in [3].
Why definitions are not in consistent with other RFCs?
