[ndnSIM] About Interest Timeout

Hi,

I have a few clarifications regarding Interest timeout.

When a Consumer App sends out an Interest request it starts a timer, and
the default RTO is 2 seconds (Interest Lifetime). If the Data does not come
back within these two seconds, OnTimeout() is called. Does this RTO ever
change? What is the default timeout strategy? EWMA?

The intermediate nodes then set the RetransmissionSuppresionInterval, which
allows the Consumer App to express Interest retransmissions following an
exponential back-off procedure (doubled at each Retx). Is that correct?


Thanks,
Adhy
