Fwd: TCP Ticks



Dear All,

I was wondering if anybody could tell me
why the default value for tcpTicks used for
the TCP Agent's various timers is 100 ms.
I am reading my copy of Wright and Stevens'
book "TCP/IP Illustrated - The Implementation",
and they talk about a fast timer of 200 ms and
a slow timer of 500 ms. But no 100 ms timer
is mentioned.

If anybody could shed light on this, I would
greatly appreciate it.

Regards,

David.
