There are various bandwidth management products which can help you do this quite easily. But doing this on a Cisco router would need you to create access-list for each IP address. Be aware that this will be more processor intensive. After this, you can CAR using rate limit command and calling access-group for the IP addresses.

AN example from one of hssi interface of my test lab is given below:

interface Hssi0/0/1
description 45Mbps to testlabr3
rate-limit output access-group 101 20000000 24000 32000 conform-action set-prec-
transmit 5 exceed-action set-prec-transmit 0
rate-limit output access-group 102 10000000 24000 32000 conform-action
set-prec-transmit 5 exceed-action drop
rate-limit output 8000000 16000 24000 conform-action set-prec-transmit 5
exceed-action drop
ip address 10.1.0.9 255.255.255.0
!
access-list 101 permit tcp any any eq www
access-list 102 permit tcp any any eq ftp
