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. Prepare to install medium enterprise WAN links | 1.1 Prepare for given work according to legislation, work health and safety (WHS) codes, regulations and standards 1.2 Arrange access to the site according to required procedure 1.3 Review existing network design documentation to ensure it is current and complete 1.4 Select network elements required to be installed to meet technical requirements 1.5 Contact vendors and service suppliers to obtain specifications and availability of identified components 1.6 Develop plans, with prioritised tasks and contingency arrangements, for installation of components with minimum disruption to client 1.7 Liaise with appropriate person to obtain approval for the plans, including security clearance and timing |
2. Configure WAN links | 2.1 Determine different methods for connecting to a wide area network (WAN) 2.2 Configure and verify a basic serial WAN configuration 2.3 Configure and verify at least two WAN protocols 2.4 Determine virtual private network (VPN) technology 2.5 Configure and verify a site-to-site VPN 2.6 Determine asymmetric digital subscriber line (ADSL) technology 2.7 Configure and verify an ADSL connection |
3. Configure and verify IP services on a router | 3.1 Determine the operation and benefits of using dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) 3.2 Configure and verify DHCP operation on a router 3.3 Implement static and dynamic addressing services for hosts in a local area network (LAN) environment 3.4 Determine the basic operation of network address translation (NAT) 3.5 Configure NAT for given network requirements 3.6 Implement and verify NAT in a medium sized enterprise branch office network 3.7 Describe the basic operation and configuration of internet protocol version 6 (IPv6) |
4. Secure a network using router services | 4.1 Determine the purpose and types of access control lists (ACLs) 4.2 Configure and apply ACLs based on network filtering requirements 4.3 Configure and apply ACLs to provide secure access to the router |
5. Troubleshoot medium enterprise WAN links | 5.1 Troubleshoot WAN implementation issues 5.2 Rectify WAN problems 5.3 Document solutions |
Evidence of the ability to:
plan and prepare for the wide area network (WAN) link installation task
install and configure WAN links
configure and troubleshoot the following internet protocol (IP) services:
network address translation (NAT)
dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP)
access control lists (ACLs)
configure and troubleshoot ADSL links
configure and troubleshoot VPNs
document solutions.
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:
outline the basic operation and configuration of internet protocol version 6 (IPv6)
identify and describe typical router setup and operations, including:
ACLs
router calling line identification (CLI) configuration
router debug commands
explain typical problems and solutions with WAN link installations.
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:
a site where network installation may be conducted
hardware and software
organisational guidelines
computers
WAN service point of presence.
Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
