Since I'm doing this over an SSH connection (a mistake I made earlier today), I'm not going to touch em0 (the adapter my SSH connection is using). Creating the bridge on an actively configured PHY will knock it off the net. This is not to say you can't have an active configuration on a bridged interface… just that the creation of the bridge (something you should only do once each time you boot) will disrupt an active connection.

NOTE: When you're digesting the above output… it helps to imagine whitespace in between the nodes with their respective hooks and other nodes. Future pastes below will introduce such whitespace to make it easier to read. === Right now, the only way to refer to the bridge is by way of "em1:lower" (because we created the bridge right on the lower hook of the em1 ether-node).
