[Nfd-dev] [Ndn-interest] UDP_retransmissiom

Good morning Eric,

I tried to use this functionality changing the NFD code (I set the boolean
variable isEnalbe = true into the file lp-reliability.hpp).
It seems that the retransmission becomes mandatory in this way (every time
the request is sent maxRetx + 1 times).
Does it behave like that or the retransmission verifies only if the ack is
not received within RTO?
Is it possible to customize the value of RTO?

Thank you.
Giuseppe.
