        I don't believe anyone will see a CAR question on the exam because
the rate-limit command is a deprecated feature. The police command has
replaced the rate-limit command. Notice that there's no PIR option in CAR
(rate-limit). Rate-limit isn't even an option in the now EOS 3550 switch.
On the 3550, you must police in the MQC. The exam bluepring states
(policing), not rate-limit or CAR (even though CAR is a method of policing
traffic).

Sincerely,
Dennis Hartmann

Mani,

You probably have understood the question in a different manner.
"Any Remaining traffic" means non -access-list of 101. If that is the case,
we cannot use continue.

Attaching good example from IP qos book , srinivas. on topic "continue"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Limiting a Particular Application's Traffic Rate at a Service Level A
service provider has one of its premium customers define its traffic service
level. All customer traffic except Hypertext Transfer Protocol
(HTTP) (Web) traffic over a rate of 15 Mbps is marked with an IP Precedence
of 4. HTTP traffic over a rate of 15 Mbps is transmitted with an IP
Precedence of 0. The customer has a 30-Mbps service from the service
provider.

 Limiting HTTP Traffic at a Service Level to a Specific Rate Interface
Hssi1/0/0 rate-limit input 30000000 15000 15000 conform-action continue
exceed-action drop rate-limit input access-group 101 15000000 10000 10000
conform-action set-prec-transmit 4 exceed-action set-prec-transmit 0
rate-limit input 30000000 15000 15000 conform-action set-prec-transmit
4 exceed-action set-prec-transmit 4
!
access-list 101 permit tcp any any eq www (1051 port talking to port 80)
access-list 101 permit tcp any eq www any (( port 80 talking to 1051 ))

The first CAR statement is used to rate-limit all incoming traffic to 30
Mbps. It uses a continue action so that you continue to the next rate-limit
statement. The second rate-limit statement is used to set the IP Precedence
value for HTTP traffic based on its traffic rate.
The last rate-limit statement is used to set the IP Precedence value to 4
for all non-HTTP traffic

5 is right or it should be set-prec-continue 0, I think later is right
because if you don't put continue it wont read the second rate-limit
statement. Any suggestions are appreciated, I would be happy if scott,
Brian or Marveen comes to give any suggestions to this doubt.
