- 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.

CCID 3 denotes TCP-Friendly Rate Control (TFRC), an equation-based
rate-controlled congestion control mechanism. TFRC is designed to
suitable than CCID 2 for applications such streaming media where a
relatively smooth sending rate is of importance.
