Thanks for the quick reply! I tried again today, and it suddenly works
just fine. I may have messed up my network settings earlier, and the
reboot might have fixed that. It now works with both 'ifconfig
br0:1 ...' and 'ip addr add ... dev br0'.

I'm still strugling to get this incorporated in my
Debian /etc/network/interfaces file, but I guess that's off-topic here.
In case it isn't, or if you know the right place to ask about that,
please let me know.

Thanks for the help!

Best,
Koen Vermeer
