Respond to Interest as per provided traffic configuration file
Multiple prefixes can be configured for handling.
Set environment variable NDN_TRAFFIC_LOGFOLDER for redirecting output to a log.
  [-d interval] - set delay before responding to interest in milliseconds
  [-c count]    - specify maximum number of interests to be satisfied
  [-q]          - quiet logging - no interest reception/data generation messages
  [-h]          - print help and exit

Usage: ndn-traffic [options] <traffic_configuration_file>
Generate Interest traffic as per provided traffic configuration file
Interests are continuously generated unless a total number is specified.
Set environment variable NDN_TRAFFIC_LOGFOLDER for redirecting output to a log.
  [-i interval] - set interest generation interval in milliseconds (default 1000 milliseconds)
  [-c count]    - set total number of interests to be generated
  [-q]          - quiet logging - no interest reception/data generation messages
  [-h]          - print help and exit
