SCOPE OF THE CONTEST The contest is defined by industry standards as set by the current industry technical standards. The contest will consist of five parts: An end-to-end network configuration, a troubleshooting exercise, a simulation TAC call, a written exam, and a design project.

Knowledge Performance The contest will include a written knowledge exam assessing knowledge of general networking concepts.

Skill Performance The contest may include but is not limited to the following assessments. Design problem — Contestents will be evaluated on their ability to design a network that meets specific requirements. If a network design problem is in use this year it will be posted on the Facebook page and via the SkillsUSA Internetworking Competition page in Remind by the Thursday prior to the competition’s start. End-To-End Networking — Given a set of networking equipment (cable, fiber, hubs/switches routers, etc.) the student must, in a finite amount of time, install or repair a network and demonstrate that the installation properly runs internet applications.

Given a logical topology and network requirements, the students will be able to develop a usable network that meets or exceeds the documentation provided. The vision and context are that client companies would request a demonstration booth that runs a particular internet application, and the student, given equipment and tools, would provide the appropriate connectivity for the application to run successfully. Technical Assistance Call — The student must solve a networking problem while on the phone with a customer. This is a simulation of working in a Technical Assistance Center. Written Exam — The student must answer questions related to CCNA-level networking. Troubleshooting — Contestents will be evaluated on their ability to troubleshoot and correct issues in an already existing network.

Standards and Competencies Note for Virtual Competitions: Contestants may not be required to perform all the standards and competencies listed in this section. However, contestants should be prepared to perform components in all areas. Prior to the competition, the technical committee may determine which standards and competencies contestants will be perform for the virtual contests. The technical committee will determine if additional information is needed for contestants prior to the competition. These changes will be posted on the SkillsUSA Championships contest update website at: http://updates.skillsusa.org.
