See last week's thread entitled "XEN - networking and performance" - 
I don't feel like repeating all the stuff that's in there about 
configuring networking under Xen & Debian !
General advice is don't use Xen network-script - comment it out and 
use the native OS tools.
- Use udev (/etc/udev/rules.d/<something-persistent-net-rules) to set 
your physical interface to a fixed and meaningful name.
- Configure the bridge as an interface in /etc/network/interfaces, 
and bind your NIC to it.
The key is to configure your IP addresses (both IPv4 and IPv6) on the 
bridge, not the physical interface.
