Ken,

Here is a link to a fairly technical discussion comparing the two. Perhaps
the key phrase is this-

quote
CAR works well together with IP multicast
    traffic and does also allow to better restrict bursty traffic by mean
    of committed-rate, burst-rate and burst-size parameters. What CAR
    can not do is that it does not allow to have per mroute-state rate
    limiters to be established dynamically.
end quote
  [which ip mulitcast rate-limit does (?)]

> In order to cap multicast traffic off to a certain level, what's the
difference between using the "rate-limit" command vs. the "ip multicast
rate-limit" command (other than the different attributes that can be
applied). This is really both a lab preparation question as well as a
real-world question.
