 * of the topology:
 *
 *     ScenarioHelper helper;
 *     helper.createTopology({
 *         {"1", "2"},
 *         {"2", "3"}
 *       });
 *
 *     helper.addRoutes({
 *         {"1", "2", "/prefix", 1},
 *         {"2", "3", "/prefix", 1}
 *       });
 *
 *     helper.addApps({
 *         {"1", "ns3::ndn::ConsumerCbr",
 *             {{"Prefix", "/prefix"}, {"Frequency", "1"}},
 *             "0s", "100s"},
 *         {"3", "ns3::ndn::Producer",
