What an assessment for ICTTEN621 must cover

33 assessable components: 4 elements (18 performance criteria), 5 performance evidence and 5 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 5 foundation skills. An audit-defensible tool maps every question and task back to these — that mapping is the coverage matrix Auditori generates alongside the assessment.

Elements & performance criteria

1 Plan and design IP-MPLS network to meet business requirements

  • 1.1Obtain work details and scope from relevant personnel and arrange for site access in compliance with required security arrangements, legislation, codes, regulations and standards
  • 1.2Determine IP-MPLS network design requirements in consultation with enterprise customer
  • 1.3Optimise factors affecting design
  • 1.4Use label stacking to route MPLS packets in the network and build MPLS services
  • 1.5Dimension layer-3 generation of core backbone and allow MPLS IP-VPN to provide MPLS convergence services
  • 1.6Obtain MPLS control plane and set up wavelengths
  • 1.7Produce design topology of a MPLS network to include location and types of edge label switch routers (LSR) and core LSRs in agreement with enterprise customer

2 Configure MPLS network and verify traffic engineering (TE) considerations

  • 2.1Configure edge and core LSRs to provide secure methods of transporting IP packets in the MPLS network using layer 2 protocols
  • 2.2Configure LSRs to provide toll bypass for convergence of voice and data over IP network
  • 2.3Classify traffic in MPLS terms and configure edge LSR to sort traffic into forward equivalent classes (FECs)
  • 2.4Install and remove two standardised signalling protocols for managing TE of MPLS paths
  • 2.5Configure MPLS-TE to provide routing on diverse paths to avoid congestion and guarantee bandwidth services

3 Configure VPN and provide a virtual private Local Area Network service (VPLS)

  • 3.1Configure a MPLS VPN tunnel for a customer network to provide multipoint-to-multipoint VPN connectivity
  • 3.2Build a content hosting server into a MPLS based VPN to produce a media network
  • 3.3Use (VPLS) as a VPN method for wide area network (WAN) multipoint-to-multipoint ethernet connectivity spanning multiple metropolitan areas
  • 3.4Produce VPLS topology using an internet protocol IP-MPLS cloud with provider edge (PE) routers connecting VPLS domains associated with an enterprise customer

4 Complete documentation

  • 4.1Produce a final design plan including network elements, configuration details and recommendations for design changes
  • 4.2Notify customer and obtain sign-off according to organisational requirements

Performance evidence

  • plan and design at least two multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) networks that meet business requirements
  • configure and test the MPLS network according to specified guidelines
  • produce design topology of a MPLS network
  • produce design plans, including network elements, configuration details and recommendations for design changes
  • implement secure virtual private network (VPN) tunnelling

Knowledge evidence

  • required legislation, codes, company work practices, regulations and standards, workplace health and safety (WHS) requirements for scoped work
  • industry-accepted hardware and software products used in IP-MPLS networks
  • functions and features of MPLS IP-VPN network operating systems including: transmission technologies; protocols
  • principles and techniques of constructing design plans
  • effects of the customer’s business domain, function and organisation on customer requirements and network equipment

Foundation skills

  • Oral communication: Engages with customers, about technical and operational matters, using clear language and active listening, observational and questioning techniques to confirm, clarify or revise understanding
  • Writing: Prepares workplace documentation including incorporating technical language to communicate complex information clearly and effectively
  • Teamwork: Selects and uses relevant conventions and protocols when consulting or negotiating with customers
  • Planning and organising: Uses a combination of formal, logical planning processes and an understanding of context for complex, high impact activities with strategic implications Uses systematic, analytical processes in complex, non-routine situations, setting goals, gathering required information and identifying and evaluating options against agreed criteria Uses formal, analytical and lateral thinking techniques for diagnosing problems and generating and evaluating possible solutions
  • Technology: Considers the strategic and operational potential of digital trends to achieve work goals, enhance work processes and create opportunities Uses digital systems and tools to enter, store and analyse data

Questions about assessing ICTTEN621

What does an assessment tool for ICTTEN621 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for ICTTEN621 needs to address all 33 unit components: 4 elements with 18 performance criteria, 5 performance evidence requirements, 5 knowledge evidence requirements, and the foundation skills. A coverage matrix mapping each question and task to these components is what an auditor looks for.

How does Auditori generate an assessment tool for ICTTEN621?

Auditori pulls the current release of ICTTEN621 from training.gov.au and generates a complete package: candidate assessment, assessor guide with model answers and observation criteria, and a coverage matrix mapping every component. A suitably qualified person then reviews and approves the draft in a built-in workflow — consistent with ASQA's guidance on AI use in VET — before export as branded PDF and editable Word.

Is the first assessment tool really free?

Yes. Every new account includes one free credit — enough to generate the complete assessment tool for ICTTEN621 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing ICTTEN621 assessment instead of generating a new one?

Yes — upload your existing assessment or learner guide and Auditori maps it against every element, performance criterion, PE and KE of ICTTEN621, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
