[Bug 1172091] Re: KVM guests with bridged network drops out intermittently

[Dyson Simmons]

I will test setting br1 to an IP address and see how that goes tomorrow.

I still believe I shouldn't have to set this however as that is the
whole point of bridges in linux isn't it? That they are transparent by
setting the network interface to promiscuous and that the bridge
monitors MAC addresses to determine what interface it should pass
packets between.

Is there documentation I am missing that says otherwise in regards to
use with KVM? Perhaps my whole understanding of bridges incorrect.
