Switchport mode access

Hello group,

the command 4switchport mode trunk4 is used to prevent a port from reverting
to access mode when trunk negotitaion fails. Does it work the other way around
as well, that is, a switchport configured in 4switchport mode access4 can
never revert to being a trunk port ? The reason I am asking is that I have
seen configurations like this:

interface FastEthernet0/1
switchport access vlan 3

and this:

interface FastEthernet0/1
switchport mode access
switchport access vlan 3

Is the difference that in the first configuration, the port could still revert
to being a trunk port, while in the second, it cannot ?

Thanks for your help in advance.

GP
