Let me explain my problem briefly.

While doing multi-home VPLS, if customer CE is Catalyst 2950 (not a router). How do I protect L2 loop. Is there any mechanism other than STP protection?

Dear All,

Above is my network diagram. Being an ISP, I am willing to give Redundant VPLS to customer (creating and binding vsi/vpls to CE connected interface on PE) with the topology shown .

If I don't run STP protection for the loop between PEs and non-mpls Catalyst 2950 (CE) shown in figure, is there any mechanism in VPLS (like mac-withdrawal.etc) that defines these two arms of Cisco2950 to be primary and secondary link thereby keeping one of the port of 2950 Catalyst in down state protecting the loop. And automatic switch over for link failure.
