Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the skills and knowledge necessary to plan, configure and support advanced internet protocol (IP) addressing and routing when implementing scalable and secure routers connected to local area networks (LANs) and wide area networks (WANs). The unit also covers configuration of secure routing solutions to support branch offices and mobile workers.It applies to individuals with advanced information and communications technology (ICT) skills who are working in a variety of roles, including network specialists, network engineers, network infrastructure engineers, senior network administrators, network and systems managers, ICT security specialists, security engineers, communications engineers and communications managers.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

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.
