Re: Juniper Config Commit causes Cisco Etherchannels to go into err-disable state

Steve let me clarify the config I am applying has nothing to do with an
LACP trunk or any of my existing LACP trunks. It is a completely different
configuration on a completely different interface, the only similarity is
that I am trying to configure a trunk interface on the Juniper side for
multiple vlans. There is no LACP configuration involved.

It really does not resolve anything it just allows a bad configuration to

and the other side is not, the channel gets shut down.  Allowing it to
remain up can cause a BPDU loop.  Your spanning tree is trying to tell you
something, you should listen or you could get really hard to isolate issues.

No there isn't, but from what I am getting responses both onlist and off
list is to just run this on the Cisco switches:

no spanning-tree etherchannel guard misconfig

and that should resolve the issue.

Thanks Everyone.
