Yes, they have a single IP address.

I have also sniffed traffic in eth1, eth2, and eth3, and I also tried to specify the IP address, yet I don't get anything.

Just FYI, this is how I create br0:

        ip link set eth1 up
        ip link set eth2 up
        ip link set eth3 up
        brctl addbr br0
        brctl addif br0 eth1
        brctl addif br0 eth2
        brctl addif br0 eth3
        ip addr ad 10.2.0.1/16 dev br0
        ip link set br0 up
