to return to the default setting.

Usage Guidelines
The no switchport nonegotiate command removes nonegotiate status.
This command is valid only when the interface switchport mode is access or trunk (configured by using the
switchport mode access or the switchport mode trunk interface configuration command). This command
returns an error if you attempt to execute it in dynamic (auto or desirable) mode.
Internetworking devices that do not support DTP might forward DTP frames improperly and cause
misconfigurations. To avoid this problem, turn off DTP by using the switchport nonegotiate command to
configure the interfaces connected to devices that do not support DTP to not forward DTP frames.
When you enter the switchport nonegotiate command, DTP negotiation packets are not sent on the interface.
The device does or does not trunk according to the mode parameter: access or trunk.
•
If you do not intend to trunk across those links, use the switchport mode access interface configuration
command to disable trunking.
•
To enable trunking on a device that does not support DTP, use the switchport mode trunk and switchport
nonegotiate interface configuration commands to cause the interface to become a trunk but to not
generate DTP frames.
Examples
This example shows how to cause a port to refrain from negotiating trunking mode and to act as a trunk or
access port (depending on the mode set):
Device(config)# interface gigabitethernet2/0/1
Device(config-if)# switchport nonegotiate
