[deepakpatra]

Hello I 'm new to CISCO  Switch world.

I 'm working as Clariion Admin and have have taken up the responsibilty to manage switches.Since,i am a novice i need little guidance on how work on cisco switches.I know the Zoning (how zoning done on MDS 9000 series switches) part ,but would like to venture deep into the details on CISCO MDS series switches.

Like, the use of Port channels etc.

Will really appreciate if some one can help me with a link or place ( not the configuration guide) where in i can find details on concentrated more on the theory part .

Thanks in advance!

Actually the best info is in the configuration guides.  There are some external companies that run training sessions on the MDS to provide in depth training.  There is the MDS cookbook available on CCO that is also a good point of information.    If you search on 'MDS white papers' after you login into Cisco.com, there are several good documents that might meet your needs.

Hope this hels,

Mike
