... but pay Attention: as soon as you are using more than one vlan per port
you will need a per-vlan-spanningtree-support.
This can either be achieved by mstp or mrstp. On the bigiron devices a
normal "spanning tree" tag is sufficient as it will do per-vlan-spanningtree
in a proprietary way that is not compatible to third party devices using
mstp.

If you have all three links connected as layer 2 then yes you have a loop.
There are many ways to mitigate against this, my preference is RSTP (rapid
spanning-tree) - which is easy to run and troubleshoot.
