Understanding edge ports in spanning tree protocol

Hello all,

I was tring to understand how I could configure my EX switches to protect agains loops.

I have an EX device which works as an access device connected to a distribution switch.via xe port.

Then all the other ge ports should be connected to a non-switch.

What should be the best configuration to prevent acciental loop generated by connecting a ge port to another one on the sama device?

If I am not mistaken the port connected to a non-switch device can be configured as edge port to speed up the rstp process so they put themself in forward mode immediately.  But what happen if I connect two of them each other?

 

Thank You
