### Description

```asn1
snmpTargetAddrTimeout OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX TimeInterval
MAX-ACCESS read-create
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"This object should reflect the expected maximum round
trip time for communicating with the transport address
defined by this row. When a message is sent to this
address, and a response (if one is expected) is not
received within this time period, an implementation
may assume that the response will not be delivered.
Note that the time interval that an application waits
for a response may actually be derived from the value
of this object. The method for deriving the actual time
interval is implementation dependent. One such method
is to derive the expected round trip time based on a
particular retransmission algorithm and on the number
of timeouts which have occurred. The type of message may
also be considered when deriving expected round trip
times for retransmissions. For example, if a message is
being sent with a securityLevel that indicates both
authentication and privacy, the derived value may be
increased to compensate for extra processing time spent
during authentication and encryption processing."
