[ndnSIM] How to use nlsr as the routing protocol with consumer and producer in ndnSIM

[Anil Jangam]

Hi Sabet,

What I am trying to say that if you start producer before NLSR app, it may
not find routes as NLSR would still be doing the routing table updates. It
does not mean that it will not allow NLSR to converge. Since I have not yet
tested this scenario myself, I thought to speculate that possibility. I do
not know how ndnSIM scheduler would be scheduling events from two different
ndn applications running on a given node. Let me know how it behaves once
you try it.

/anil.
