You shouldn't have to set up anything extra apart from the IP address on one
interface of the bridge and the bridge itself. Is the bridge bridging, i.e.
can you ping 192.168.0.2 from 192.168.0.3?
Also, what does your config look like? I think you should have something
like:
ifconfig rtk0 inet 192.168.0.1 netmask 0xffffff00 up
ifconfig bridge0 create
brconfig bridge0 add rtk1 add rtk0 up
To see the ARP cache on the bridge, you can run:
brconfig bridge0
