set port host [7:20591]
I got a question today from a customer who had seen a %PAGP-5-PORTFROMSTP: error message on his 6509. I explained it was mostly informational, the device connected to that port was either disconnected or shutdown. I then thought I had a good idea, do a "set port host" on our lab switch on a port connected to a router. My reasoning was that this, among other things, disables PAGP, auto port channeling, so if I disconnect a device on a port with port host enabled I should not see PAGP error messages. Wrong, I still get them Thought I would throw that out to see if I'm smokin crack with my logic. Thanks Dave -- David Madland Sr. Network Engineer CCIE# 2016 Qwest Communications Int. Inc.

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).

guys, a quick quiery i am running several 6509`s ..about 50 in different sites..and i can `t see this "set port host " command >WS-C6509 Software, Version NmpSW: 5.3(2)CSX >6509_3> (enable) set port host >Unknown command "set port host". Use 'set port help' for more info. > >6509_3> (enable) set spantree portfast ? >Usage: set spantree portfast what Gives...or have i just got a crappy Catos cheers steve >From: "Nigel Taylor" >Reply-To: "Nigel Taylor" >To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: Re: set port host [7:20591] >Date: Thu, 20 Sep 2001 18:25:02 -0400 > >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.

You need to run at least 5.5 cat OS.
