Dear vaishkhan161190,

if you want to prevent loop in your switch network u can use spanning tree protocol. spanning tree is a mechanism that will prevent from infinite loop of  packets.it is a Layer 2 protocol so no need to run on routers because routers are L3.

pls read the folloing like

I hope it was Informative .

Hossein
