# Creating a QoS Parameter on an Interface Superset or Interface Set

Tasks to create a QoS parameter on an interface superset or an interface set include:

- Configuring a QoS Parameter Definition for an Interface Superset or an Interface Set
- Creating a QoS Parameter Instance for an Interface Superset
- Creating a QoS Parameter Instance for an Interface Set

## Configuring a QoS Parameter Definition for an Interface Superset or an Interface Set

You can configure a parameter definition to recognize an interface superset or an interface set as controlled-interface types and instance interface-types.

Controlled-interface types specify resources that the parameter instance can control. Instance-interface types are the interface types to which the QoS client can apply a parameter instance.

To specify an interface set or an interface superset in a QoS parameter definition:

1. Specify the QoS parameter definition.
   host1(config)#qos-parameter-define business
2. Configure the controlled-interface type and specify the interface set or the interface superset.
   host1(config-qos-parameter-define)#controlled-interface-type set host1(config-qos-parameter-define)#controlled-interface-type superset

   You can specify up to four controlled-interface types for each parameter definition.

3. Configure the instance-interface type and specify the interface set or the interface superset.
   host1(config-qos-parameter-define)#instance-interface-type set host1(config-qos-parameter-define)#instance-interface-type superset

   You can specify up to eight instance-interface types for each parameter definition.

## Creating a QoS Parameter Instance for an Interface Superset

To create a QoS parameter instance for an interface superset:

1. Specify the QoS interface superset.
   host1(config)#qos-interface-superset vlan-superset
2. Create the QoS parameter instance.
   host1(config-qos-interface-superset)#qos-parameter business-data
3. Attach the QoS profile.
   host1(config-qos-interface-superset)#qos-profile vlan

## Creating a QoS Parameter Instance for an Interface Set

To create a QoS parameter instance for an interface set:

1. Specify the QoS interface set.
   host1(config)#qos-interface-set vlan-set
2. Create the QoS parameter instance.
   host1(config-qos-interface-set)#qos-parameter business-data
3. Attach the QoS profile.
   host1(config-qos-interface-set)#qos-profile vlan
