MADMAN,
Well it looks from this search on CCO that you were right in that
this command does turn off PAgP.
Also, by using the CatOS PortFast mechanism, you can configure the phone
access port to move into a forwarding state immediately, thereby decreasing
IP phone boot time. To perform this configuration, use the set port host
command on the Catalyst 4000 and 6000 or the spanning-tree portfast command
on the 2900 XL and 3500 XL, which turns off Dynamic Trunking Protocol (DTP)
and Port Aggregation Protocol (PAgP) and enables PortFast.
However, in doing so it does seems like although PagP is turned off it is
the mechnism used to provide informational status of FEC capable links.
Here's a link that provides some info that might help. Perform a "find on
page" using the "%PAGP-5-PORTFROMSTP".
http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/473/34.shtml
If you want to suppress these syslog messages, you can modify the logging
level for the "PAGP" facility to 4 or lower using the command set logging
level pagp 4 default (the default logging level for "PAGP" is 5).
