Is the domU's xvif added to the bridge ? check with brconfig.

Here is my xen/scripts/vif-bridge:
#!/bin/sh
set -e 

echo "vif-bridge $*"

# Operation name.
OP=$1
shift

# Pull variables in args into environment
for arg ; do export "${arg}" ; done

# Required parameters. Fail if not set.
domain=${domain:?}
vif=${vif:?}
mac=${mac:?}
bridge=${bridge:?}

# Optional parameters. Set defaults.
ip=${ip:-''}   # default to null (do nothing)
case $OP in
    up)
	ifconfig x${vif} up
	brconfig ${bridge} add x${vif}
	exit 0
	;;
    down)
	exit 0
	;;
    *)
	echo 'Invalid command: ' $OP
	echo 'Valid commands are: up, down'
	exit 1
	;;
esac
