+Description:
+                Each batman node only maintains information about its
+                own local neighborhood, therefore generating graphs
+                showing the topology of the entire mesh is not easily
+                feasible without having a central instance to collect
+                the local topologies from all nodes. This file allows
+                to activate the collecting (server) mode.
