Bandwidth cannot be restricted on any of the Catalyst Switches. It can be restricted only on Cisco Routers by using "Committed Access Rate" concept. Switches do not work that way.

I guess, there is no way in switches to restrict the bandwidth.

What about l3 aware catalyst switches. They are just big routers so I would surmise that CAR is supported.
