 * Mesh point is a virtual net device which is responsible for
 *   - Aggreagating and coordinating 1..* real devices -- mesh interfaces, see MeshInterfaceDevice class. 
 *   - Hosting all mesh-related level 2 protocols. 
 * 
 * One of hosted L2 protocols must inplement L2RoutingProtocol interface and is used for packets forwarding.
 *
 * From the level 3 point of view MeshPointDevice is similar to BridgeNetDevice, but the packets, 
 * which going through may be changed (because L2 protocols may require their own headers or tags).
 * 
 * Attributes: TODO
