Does anyone have a router acting as a bridge in their lab network?

Cisco documentation claims that there is a "debug span" command that shows 
BPDU frames in hex as they come in. Now, I think this is an awful idea, 
since they come in every 2 seconds, but for a project I'm working on I need 
to find out if the command really exists.

My routers will not run IOS beyond 11.0. (Hey, they were free! ;-) They do 
not support "debug span." They only support "debug span events" which shows 
this:

Albany#debug span events
Spanning Tree event debugging is on
Albany#
ST: Topology Change rcvd on Ethernet0
ST: Topology Change rcvd on Ethernet1
ST: Topology Change rcvd on Ethernet0
ST: Topology Change rcvd on Ethernet1

I'm wondering 2 things:

Does "debug span events" still exist? (It's not in the documentation.)

Does "debug span" exist? (It is in the documentation but doesn't work on my 
routers.)

Could anyone try it for me and send me output?

By the way, if you don't have bridging working on your routers, it's really 
easy to configure:

bridge 1 protocol ieee
int e0
bridge-group 1
int e1
bridge-group 1

THANK-YOU!!!!!!
