I don't think that's right, "switchport nonegotiate" actually just  
stops DTP from being transmitted and hence can't be applied when the  
switchport is in dynamic desirable mode, which is why it can only be  
applied in "switchport mode access" or "switchport mode trunk" as you  
are explicitly telling the switchport what mode to be in and there is  
no need for it to be negotiated via DTP, putting "switchport  
nonegotiate" on a switchport that has been configured as access is not  
going to force it to be a trunk, it will still be an access port.

Feel free to correct me.
