At this time, the only algorithm for determining when a link
has failed, other than the hook being disconnected, is the
``manual'' algorithm: the node is explicitly told which of
the links are up via the

control message (see below).
Newly connected links are down until configured otherwise.

In every ''interval'' seconds (where

are used for data transfer.
