Re: loop-protect
Very useful. Some devices do not forward BPDU's so even with spanning-tree enabled there is a potential for a loop to exist.
Loop-protect uses a different multicast address which regular devices should forward. As soon as a loop-protect enabled port sees this packet it will disable the port preventing a loop.

Re: loop-protect
Generally speaking, you only want to enable this on your edge ports (not switch to switch links otherwise you may block off entire switches if a loop is detected - still you may want to do this if the other switch does not support loop-protect)
5300(config)# loop-protect
Check the release notes for more information o using this feature as well as BPDU Protection
