What's scc? I don't see it described anywhere.

scc means "soft congestion control"
I guess this is something specific to your device, isn't it? Can't you
please extend the description a bit more?

Thanks!

SCC is a firmware which provides multiple congestion control algorithms, including dcqcn.
Congestion control is a mechanism that controls the entry of rdma packets into the network,
enabling a better use of a shared network infrastructure and avoiding congestive collapse.
