As Axel already mentionned: These are the outgoing interfaces which you can 
specify but the problem arises if your neighbor node has 2 interfaces as 
well. How are you going to seperate these ? Normally you do so by using 2 
different IP addresses to send traffic to one or the other interface. But if 
you only have one address ...
