[ndnSIM] problem with an underwater node while running, the NDN layer!

[Oleg Surnin]

Thanks for your replies.

I added manually faces to the FIB. Packets still not forwarding.

Also I'm noticed that p2p network devices have a MAC address in 
FIB(netdev://[00:00:...:0d]258), but UAN devices that I added don't have 
them (netdev://256). Maybe this is a problem?
