BBR is conceptually a CC, but in FreeBSD it is NOT implemented as a CC =
module.
It is a TCP stack. You need to load it using
kldload tcp_bbr
and then either make it the default by
sudo sysctl net.inet.tcp.functions_default=3Dbbr
or use the IPPROTO_TCP level socket option TCP_FUNCTION_BLK to set the =
stack
to BBR. The uperf test tool allows to set the TCP stack for =
measurements.
Please note that you need to compile the kernel with
makeoptions	WITH_EXTRA_TCP_STACKS=3D1
options		TCPHPTS
