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. Plan, configure and test a complex network-routing protocol solution | 1.1 Determine network resources required for implementing a complex distance-vector routing protocol solution, a multi-area link-state routing protocol solution and an exterior routing protocol solution on a network 1.2 Produce separate protocol implementation plans and verification plans for each routing solution 1.3 Configure and test the routing protocol solution 1.4 Document results of the routing protocol solution implementation and verification plans for each solution |
2. Plan, configure and test an internet protocol version 6- (IPv6) based network solution | 2.1 Determine network resources needed for implementing IPv6 on a network 2.2 Produce an implementation plan and a verification plan for an IPv6-based network solution 2.3 Configure IPv6 routing and IPv6 interoperation with IPv4 2.4 Verify and test the IPv6 solution and make amendments if necessary 2.5 Document results of IPv6 implementation and verification plans |
3. Plan, configure and test an IPv4 or IPv6-based network redistribution solution | 3.1 Produce an IPv4 or IPv6 redistribution implementation plan and verification plan, based on the outcomes of a network redistribution analysis 3.2 Configure and verify the redistribution solution for the network 3.3 Document results of redistribution, implementation and verification plans 3.4 Analyse the differences between implementing an IPv4 and an IPv6 redistribution solution |
4. Plan, configure and test a layer 3 path control solution | 4.1 Produce a layer 3 path control implementation plan and a verification plan based on the outcomes of a network redistribution analysis 4.2 Configure and verify layer 3 path control for the network 4.3 Implement basic teleworker and branch services 4.4 Evaluate and compare broadband technologies and VPN technologies in terms of access and data transfer rate as solutions for secure broadband network |
Evidence of the ability to:
plan, configure and support advanced routed network infrastructure
use network tools
plan and analyse redistribution solutions
produce and configure layer 3 path control implementation plan
provide solutions to static and dynamic routing issues together with optimisation strategies.
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 broadband technologies relevant to advanced internetworking routing solutions
summarise business justifications for having integrated and unified enterprise networks
outline emerging viable business and social technologies
clarify external developments or factors that affect network design
summarise IPv4 and IPv6 technologies and solutions
outline maintenance and management tools and practices suitable for complex networks to achieve availability and resilience
summarise network topologies
explain regulations, standards and certifications relevant to advanced internetworking routing solutions
explain risk management strategies and practices suitable for a complex network environment
outline routing tables, protocols and operational processes
summarise routing technologies for an enterprise environment
summarise security for enterprise networks
explain security standards and technologies for network environments
outline the benefits of formal or structured approaches to network management
summarise virtual private network (VPN) technologies.
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 networking industry, and include access to:
a site where network installation may be conducted
router hardware and software
organisational guidelines
computers
local area network (LAN) and wide area network (WAN) systems.
Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
