description: Which OS are you running? RTNETLINK answers: File exists usually means the interface already exists. Are you able to down the interface using ifconfig before attempting a restart?

description: I'm not entirely sure. What does ifconfig -a output? A quick google search retrieved: http://bytefreaks.net/linux/bash/kvm-how-to-configure-a-brid ge-connection-in-ubuntu-11-10 Seems to have the same issue but solved it with a reboot. Seems like a basic question, but have you tried rebooting? Other than that, after you down the interfaces what does 'ip route' show?
