Version 11

In version 11, there is another properties which name is " Initial Retransmission Timeout Base Multiplier for SYN Retransmission".

 

 

Is there anyone knows what is the exact function/meaning of this parameter?

 

 

Thanks

 

==============================

 

Initial Retransmission Timeout Base Multiplier for SYN Retransmission

Specifies the initial RTO (Retransmission TimeOut) base multiplier for SYN retransmissions. The default is 0 (zero). This value is modified by the exponential backoff table to select the interval for subsequent retransmissions

    if i am not wrong, it is initial RTO which is 3 seconds by default.

     

     

    in v11, it is configurable.
