List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.
ELEMENT | PERFORMANCE CRITERIA |
Elements describe the essential outcomes. | Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. |
1. Determine network documentation requirements | 1.1 Consult with appropriate personnel 1.2 Identify network documentation standards 1.3 Define network configuration 1.4 Develop naming standards and labelling schemes 1.5 Develop network addressing scheme and verify, using calculations |
2. Design network diagrams and checklists | 2.1 Identify network software mapping tools 2.2 Use network software mapping tools to design network diagrams 2.3 Develop plans and checklists 2.4 Develop manuals |
3. Produce network documentation | 3.1 Validate documentation structure with appropriate personnel 3.2 Produce network diagrams 3.3 Produce network plans and checklists 3.4 Produce procedure and policy manuals 3.5 Prepare documentation for publication |
4. Complete network documentation | 4.1 Check network documentation with appropriate personnel 4.2 Select appropriate media 4.3 Publish network documentation 4.4 Record and store essential network documentation 4.5 Notify appropriate personnel of the completed network documentation |
Evidence of the ability to:
determine client requirements
design network documentation according to standards
produce network documentation according to design specifications.
Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.
To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must:
explain open systems interconnect (OSI) layered communication model
summarise network requirements related to:
applications
life cycles
manageability
quality of service
explain network design concepts related to:
financial constraints
network topologies
organisation requirements
physical constraints
security issues.
Gather evidence to demonstrate consistent performance in conditions that are safe and replicate the workplace. Noise levels, production flow, interruptions and time variances must be typical of those experienced in the network industry, and include access to:
relevant network documentation
legislation and standards documentation
industry codes of practice.
Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
