are you using the latest version ? Elektra reported a bug if you use the
latest version together with the "-a" option. As a result the node that runs
with that option enabled does not see any neighbours. Can you confirm that ?

You can safely ignore the 169.254.x.x addresses. Batman uses that for its
internal tunneling mechanism which should not concern you.
Does your setup work now or not ?
