Previously we used ioctl() to set the IP address and netmask of the
bridges used for virtual networks, and apparently the SIOCSIFNETMASK
ioctl implicitly set the broadcast address for the interface. The new
method of using the "ip" command requires broadcast address to be
explicitly specified though.
