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?

The IESG has received a request from the Mobile Ad-hoc Networks WG
(manet) to consider the following document:
- 'The Optimized Link State Routing Protocol version 2'
  <draft-ietf-manet-olsrv2-15.txt> as Proposed Standard

The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits
final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the
ietf(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org mailing lists by 2012-08-22. Exceptionally, comments 
may be
sent to iesg(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org instead. In either case, please retain the
beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. This last call
period has been extended to handle the fact that it spans the IETF-84
meeting.

This last call is being re-initiated to include a notice that this document
includes a normative down reference to an Informational RFC:
RFC5148, "Jitter considerations in MANETs".

Abstract

   This specification describes version 2 of the Optimized Link State
   Routing (OLSRv2) protocol for Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANETs).
