HP Procurve to Cisco Catalyst

[RobboRobson]

Hi,

I hope one of you can help me with this.

I currently have 2 Cisco Switches which I am using as the Backbone.

I would like to connect 2 more HP switches to these to use as a storage network.

I would like my network to look like the one on the attached drawing.

I have just plugged one of my HP Switches in to one of my Cisco's and i am getting BPDU error on that HP port when looking at Spanning Tree.

Can anyone help me to why this is happening and additionally the best way of setting this up?

Thanks for your help

James
