- CCID 2, TCP-like Congestion Control, denotes Additive Increase,
- Multiplicative Decrease (AIMD) congestion control with behavior
- modelled directly on TCP, including congestion window, slow start,
- timeouts, and so forth [RFC 2581]. CCID 2 achieves maximum
- bandwidth over the long term, consistent with the use of end-to-end
- congestion control, but halves its congestion window in response to
- each congestion event. This leads to the abrupt rate changes
- typical of TCP. Applications should use CCID 2 if they prefer
- maximum bandwidth utilization to steadiness of rate. This is often
- the case for applications that are not playing their data directly
- to the user. For example, a hypothetical application that
- transferred files over DCCP, using application-level retransmissions
- for lost packets, would prefer CCID 2 to CCID 3. On-line games may
- also prefer CCID 2. See RFC 4341 for further details.

- CCID2 is the default CCID used by DCCP.

+ CCID-3 denotes TCP-Friendly Rate Control (TFRC), an equation-based

be reasonably fair when competing for bandwidth with TCP-like flows,
where a flow is "reasonably fair" if its sending rate is generally
within a factor of two of the sending rate of a TCP flow under the
same conditions. However, TFRC has a much lower variation of
