Modification History

Release	Comments
Release 1	This version first released with ICT Information and Communications Technology Training Package Version 1.0.

Performance Evidence

Evidence of the ability to:

conduct research and produce a security solutions plan

evaluate, design and implement a wireless local area network (WLAN) site security plan

evaluate end-to-end security solutions and assess their integration with the planned wireless solutions

use network tools to test wireless controllers and intrusion prevention and detection system (IPDS) solutions.

Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.

Knowledge Evidence

To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must:

explain configuration, verification and troubleshooting procedures to undertake:

router operation and routing

virtual local area network (VLAN) switching and inter-switching communications

outline iDevice Operating System (iOS) and internet protocol (IP) networking models

explain intrusion prevention system (IPS) and intrusion detection system (IDS) security protection

outline threat mitigation strategies

summarise the following aspects of wireless, including:

current regulations, standards and certifications

deployment schemes

network security technology

network topologies, architectures and elements

networking protocols

summarise WLAN with reference to:

advanced security platforms

devices, their specification and use

radio frequency characteristics and their measuring techniques.

Assessment Conditions

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 or prototype where network installation may be conducted

hardware and software

organisational guidelines

live network

stand-alone and lightweight WLAN controllers and access points (AP)

hardware and software WLAN site survey tools

hardware and software IDS and IPS.

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
