Below is a file containing snippets from a test run of the ETX daemon, from the logs of "cuw01". The log starts shortly after the system has booted, and we see the metrics of cuw01's four neighbors begin to shift away from their initial median values and stabalize favoring (assigning a lower cost) the links with a higher record of successful transmission/reception.

Given the close proximity of our current test bed configuration, we expect the metrics in general to go straight to 0 (no cost) and stay there. Analysis of ETX performance in real world setting is a next step of the project.
