Root Guard

Hello GS

I am trying to configure rootguard.

Here is the scenario.

I have have four switches and one of them is the root bridge because it has
the lowest bridge ID. I want to configure root guard so that the root bridge
does not loose its status even if there is a better priority from other
switches in the domain.

I applied the spanning-tree guard root command on the interface connecting to
the other switches on the. As i changed the priority on one of the other
switches it became the root bridge,

The port which had the rootguard command went to inconsistent mode. But it did
not stop the other switch from taking over as the root bridge.

i need some explanation plssss
