I'm configuring a trunk between a Juniper EX2300 and a C6509, the trunk forms when I use 'nonegotiate' on the Cisco side however our standard is 'Dynamic Desirable' for all access layer devices and when I set this on the Cisco port-channel I get the following error after a short period.
%EC-SW1-5-CANNOT_BUNDLE2: Gi1/4/13 is not compatible with Gi1/4/13 and will be suspended (trunk mode of Gi2/4/13 is access, Gi1/4/13 is trunk)
%EC-SW2_STBY-5-CANNOT_BUNDLE2: Gi2/4/13 is not compatible with Gi1/4/13 and will be suspended (trunk mode of Gi2/4/13 is access, Gi1/4/13 is trunk)
My port-channel then gets suspended and I loose connection to the EX2300, till I configure the Cisco with nonegrotiate,
Cisco 6509

I welcome any thoughts or pointers, thanks.

there are cases that make mode of link unpredictable, here cisco side use and support DTP juniper dont support DTP,
so first time the admin Mode and Op mode is trunk in port member of PortChannel and PortChannel
after the power failure the admin mode and Op mode is access for port member but it trunk of Portchannel, this happened because Juniper dont support DTP.
check show interface status
to make this issue not happened again only config port member with
switchport mode trunk
i.e. dont use DTP hardcoded the mode to trunk.

not all vendor use DTP like cisco
so disable it and config trunk mode directly is better

Hello @Linak25
DTP is disabled on Trunk link beween my Juniper EX4200 and Cisco Switch.
It causes conflict like this.

Thank you for the responses, what baffles me is that it worked perfectly fine for a few weeks and after a power failure these alarms started to flag up and loss of connections due to the port-channel unbundling.

If this happening after power Failures only - i will shutdown the port-channel both the sides and bring up see if that fix the issue.
Also check any other Layer 1 issues ? also make sure speed nonegotiate (sometime this worked for me when we are connecting different verndors)
Can you also post from cisco and junpier show ethechannel 11 summary
