The physical keeps what looks like a dummy ipv6 address is all, other than
that it looks like it's non-functional.

It's an archlinux system, so when I get it all working I'll rework it
through systemd or netctl.

I don't have a lot of experience with routing problems, and I can't make
any changes until tomorrow because the box is in use.

Can anyone recommend some good reading on routing?

Will I need to make a second bridge interface tied to the physical for the
guest os?
