This reasoning came after Simon Wunderlich's feedback, written here:<br>

It may be interesting to track neighbors per interface for
multi-radio nodes as well, and track primary/secondary interfaces
- at least this is what alfred/vis in batman-adv can do (check the
illustrations):

In general it sounds like a good idea to have a single format to
feed different drawing applications, although I'm not enough
involved in these kind of things to judge the usefulness. For
alfred-vis we have two formats, one is the classic
graphviz-compatible output which is similar to the old OLSR
output, and another JSON output.

Gabriel's response:<br>

I think we should have a different representation for the topology
information, i've made another pad to develop the json structure
