I'm not entirely sure what your question asks. You can set individual limits on CS and PIT sizes (in number of content objects).  FIB is not updated dynamically, so your simulation is responsible in defining appropriate number of FIB entries.  What do you mean "in topology we set..."? Are you referring to transmission queue sizes?  If yes, this is totally independent of NDN or ndnSIM.

Do you mean ndn::StackHelper::SetContentStore method?  This is just a generic method to define ns3 class name of cs implementation to be used as a content store in ndnSIM. The rest of the parameters are just name-balue pairs that can configure ns-3 attributes of the specified cs.
