You don't say what version of FreeBSD you are running (there were some
bridge(4) fixes between 6.1 and 6.2) or what ifconfig shows for the
bridge members.

This may be indicative of a loop in your switch network - is there any
way that packets leaving fxp0 can re-appear on em0, xl0 or xl1?

Based on a previous thread, you probably should put the IP address
on the bridge device, though that should not be related to your problem.
