Try interface virtual-tokenring 0

This will create a virtual token ring that will allow you to issue the
source-bridge commands to practice with. The only gotcha is that OSPF does
not really like the interfaces and assume them to be loopbacks so they will
always appear as a /32 in ospf. Some code revs I have found do not support
putting IP addresses on the virtual interfaces at all but I can not remember
which ones they were. I dont have any TR routers in my practice lab but I
did pretty much all the bootcamp labs with the virtual-token ring
interfaces. worst case you will need to do some area range commands to make
up for the ospf problems, but hey..practice is practice right? Good luck.
