ICTTEN623 — Design and manage internet protocol TV in a service provider network

1 Produce and evaluate design requirements for an IPTV network

• 1.1Analyse major video models and the impact video challenges have on design of an IPTV network
• 1.2Evaluate IPTV against other competing TV broadcast technologies to determine optimum design approach
• 1.3Produce the topology of an IPTV network, showing network architecture from IPTV standards’ bodies and determine design requirements
• 1.4Plan dimensioning of network parameters for multicast and unicast video delivery over broadband in a service provider network

2 Design an IPTV network for video on demand (VoD) delivery

• 2.1Design the content delivery system (CDS) to cache IPTV content in each major metropolitan area for broadcast or streaming VoD models to eliminate performance variability introduced by internet transport or core peering relationships
• 2.2Design a video network to provide VoD loads with network solutions using VoD design requirements
• 2.3Design a VoD application to meet bandwidth requirements and quality of service (QoS) requirements for commercial viability of IPTV network

3 Design and configure an MPLS IPTV network to meet business requirements

• 3.1Determine IP-MPLS network design requirements
• 3.2Investigate factors that affect design considerations and ways they can be minimised
• 3.3Produce the design topology of a MPLS network to provide secure methods of transporting IP packets using layer 2 protocols
• 3.4Design a MPLS layer over the IP networking structure, to combine efficiency of multicast protocols with traffic engineering (TE) facilities to enable fast packet forwarding for real time video streaming applications

4 Manage delivery of IPTV services

• 4.1Determine operational processes required to support IPTV by operators
• 4.2Produce a plan of the management and customer support model, including strategies dealing with delivery of VoD issues
• 4.3Produce a plan of a video network using video delivery strategies to deliver optimum average revenue per user (ARPU) to serve the demographic of an area and the nature of an operator’s business
• 4.4Manage and monitor video across the network using a management tool

What does an assessment tool for ICTTEN623 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for ICTTEN623 needs to address all 36 unit components: 4 elements with 15 performance criteria, 5 performance evidence requirements, 10 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 ICTTEN623?

Auditori pulls the current release of ICTTEN623 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 ICTTEN623 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing ICTTEN623 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 ICTTEN623, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
