Plan and manage troubleshooting advanced integrated IP networks

Formats and tools

Unit Description
Reconstruct the unit from the xml and display it as an HTML page.
Assessment Tool
an assessor resource that builds a framework for writing an assessment tool
Assessment Template
generate a spreadsheet for marking this unit in a classroom environment. Put student names in the top row and check them off as they demonstrate competenece for each of the unit's elements and performance criteria.
Assessment Matrix
a slightly different format than the assessment template. A spreadsheet with unit names, elements and performance criteria in separate columns. Put assessment names in column headings to track which performance criteria each one covers. Good for ensuring that you've covered every one of the performance criteria with your assessment instrument (all assessement tools together).
Wiki Markup
mark up the unit in a wiki markup codes, ready to copy and paste into a wiki page. The output will work in most wikis but is designed to work particularly well as a Wikiversity learning project.
Evidence Guide
create an evidence guide for workplace assessment and RPL applicants
Competency Mapping Template
Unit of Competency Mapping – Information for Teachers/Assessors – Information for Learners. A template for developing assessments for a unit, which will help you to create valid, fair and reliable assessments for the unit, ready to give to trainers and students
Observation Checklist
create an observation checklist for workplace assessment and RPL applicants. This is similar to the evidence guide above, but a little shorter and friendlier on your printer. You will also need to create a seperate Assessor Marking Guide for guidelines on gathering evidence and a list of key points for each activity observed using the unit's range statement, required skills and evidence required (see the unit's html page for details)

Self Assessment Survey
A form for students to assess thier current skill levels against each of the unit's performance criteria. Cut and paste into a web document or print and distribute in hard copy.
Moodle Outcomes
Create a csv file of the unit's performance criteria to import into a moodle course as outcomes, ready to associate with each of your assignments. Here's a quick 'how to' for importing these into moodle 2.x
Registered Training Organisations
Trying to find someone to train or assess you? This link lists all the RTOs that are currently registered to deliver ICTNWK612, 'Plan and manage troubleshooting advanced integrated IP networks'.
Google Links

Books
Reference books for 'Plan and manage troubleshooting advanced integrated IP networks' on fishpond.com.au. This online store has a huge range of books, pretty reasonable prices, free delivery in Australia *and* they give a small commission to ntisthis.com for every purchase, so go nuts :)


Elements and Performance Criteria

ELEMENT

PERFORMANCE CRITERIA

Elements describe the essential outcomes.

Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element.

1. Plan the strategies for troubleshooting and monitoring the performance of advanced integrated IP networks

1.1 Develop a plan to monitor and manage the IP network to optimise its performance and reliability

1.2 Plan the isolation of network segments for troubleshooting procedures

1.3 Plan the testing sequences and scenarios of network infrastructure

1.4 Select appropriate network testing and monitoring tools, and software application to suit the specific network troubleshooting and monitoring sequence

2. Manage and monitor troubleshooting strategies for complex enterprise networks

2.1 Manage and monitor strategies for network monitoring structure

2.2 Produce a routine internetwork operating system (IOS) device maintenance plan to include monitoring of routing protocols and router configurations

2.3 Isolate sub-optimal internetwork operations at the appropriate open systems interconnection (OSI) model layer

2.4 Produce a plan for troubleshooting and monitoring security issues related to IOS services for mission critical applications

2.5 Produce a plan for troubleshooting and monitoring internet protocol version 6 (IPv6) and version 4 (IPv4) interoperability

3. Implement test plans for advanced network solutions

3.1 Test switch-to-switch connectivity, access ports and loop prevention for the virtual local area network (VLAN) based solution

3.2 Test private VLANs

3.3 Test switch virtual interfaces (SVI)

3.4 Test switch support of advanced services

3.5 Troubleshoot switch configuration
