Re: [ns] reset_rtx_timer(int mild, int backoff)

Hi

In tcp.h (line 233) you can see the following declaration:

void reset_rtx_timer(int mild, int backoff = 1);

backoff will get a default value of 1 if you don't provide 
a second argument when you call reset_rtx_timer() (as seems to
be the case in tcp-vegas).
