Profile for Datagram Congestion Control Protocol Congestion Control ID 3: TCP-Friendly Rate Control
RFC 4342, “Profile for Datagram Congestion Control Protocol Congestion Control ID 3: TCP-Friendly Rate Control”, is a Proposed Standard document published in April 2006 by S. Floyd, E. Kohler, J. Padhye. It has since been updated by RFC 5348, RFC 6323, RFC 8311. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document contains the profile for Congestion Control Identifier 3, TCP-Friendly Rate Control (TFRC), in the Datagram Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP). CCID 3 should be used by senders that want a TCP-friendly sending rate, possibly with Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN), while minimizing abrupt rate changes. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
