I use a systemd service file to setup a bridge for somewhat similar
purposes, the sequence of commands I use is this:
/usr/sbin/brctl addbr brkvm
/usr/sbin/ip addr add 192.168.56.1/24 dev brkvm
/usr/sbin/ip link set dev brkvm up
after that, ip a s brkvm shows:
4: brkvm: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state
UP group default
link/ether fe:83:79:56:a3:a2 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 192.168.56.1/24 scope global brkvm
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
I have never used netctl so I can't help you there, in case you are
wondering the complete service file is use is:
[Unit]
Description=Sets up a bride for use with virtual machines.
