It really does not resolve anything it just allows a bad configuration to work. The guard is there so that if one side is configured as a channel 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. Steven Naslund Chicago IL

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.
