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 for design and installation of a smart technology network | 1.1 Prepare for given work according to work health and safety (WHS) and environmental requirements with appropriate personnel from the enterprise 1.2 Identify safety hazards and implement risk control measures in consultation with appropriate personnel 1.3 Determine nature and scope of the smart technology network from customer specifications and appropriate personnel 1.4 Obtain operating instructions, manuals, hardware and software testing methodologies 1.5 Consult appropriate personnel to ensure task is coordinated effectively with others involved at the worksite |
2. Design a customer smart technology network | 2.1 Produce a smart technology network topology that is interoperable and scalable after considering customer requirements, technical specifications, physical and financial constraints and expansion projections 2.2 Determine network devices and network resources according to enterprise procedures 2.3 Produce smart technology network design including network security and network element configurations to meet design specifications and enterprise procedures |
3. Install and configure a designed smart technology network | 3.1 Install smart technology network hardware to topology design plan according to enterprise procedures 3.2 Determine network addressing scheme for network connectivity, and verify using calculations 3.3 Configure network elements to perform logical connection of smart technology network topology with required network security features 3.4 Conduct connectivity and performance tests to verify the network installation meets design specification 3.5 Troubleshoot smart technology network and internet connectivity according to manufacturer’s specifications and enterprise procedures |
