What is snPortCARExceedAction?

This value specifies what action the switch takes on traffic that exceeds the rate limit, choosing among continue, drop, xmit, precedXmit, or precedCont, the same option set used by snPortCARConformAction for conforming traffic. Admins typically set this to drop to police excess traffic, or to a precedence-rewriting action to demote rather than discard it. For example, setting snPortCARExceedAction to drop enforces a hard cap by discarding any traffic beyond the committed rate and burst limits.
