Re: "rate-limit" vs. "ip multicast rate-limit"

 From the CD on IOS 12.2:

<snip>
the configured limit is applied to each of the matching G, S and G,*
multicast states independently. The configured limit in the command does
not apply to the aggregate amount of traffic matched by the command, but
to each covered multicast route individually.
</snip>

The ip multicast rate-limit is per (S,G).
The rate-limit is aggregate limit for the entire ACL.

This is really both a lab preparation question as well as a real-world question.
