## Overview

\abstract Link quality measurement is a representation of the expected capabilities of the link layer network
attachment. Use this value to tune initial values for algorithms that can scale with the
capabilities of the network. Do not use this value to gate connection attempts or to override
adjustments that would be made based on actual network performance.
