Keep in mind that PAgP (Port Aggregation Protocol) is the protocol that sets
up and tears down EtherChannels. Unless the port is configured to shut off
PAgP then you'll still get activity for it since the default setting is
"auto". Even on a port that ISN'T configured for EtherChannel. You might
also want to make note that PAgP will add ~18 seconds to your STP
convergence since the PAgP negotiations must be complete before STP
convergence begins.
You might want to disable PAgP on all user ports if only to make the initial
connect time a bit snappier.
Hope this helps,
Karen
