If you have connections A <=> B, B <=> C, C <=> A then you'll have to
be very careful with your configuration if you want to ensure that the
link B <=> C isn't picked as the one to block. I would strongly
recommend that you don't make a topology that only works if certain
links are never blocked.

The best way to have that level of control is to disable spanning tree
and do the blocking/unblocking manually.
