Lose network access every time I create a bridge with systemd-networkd

Hi. I'm attempting to follow the Xen setup guide on Archwiki and have opted to create a bridge with systemd-networkd. I am trying to enslave my wifi card (wlp27s0) to the bridge (xenbr0), as I don't have wired internet on this machine. It should be noted that I ran the command "iw dev wlp27s0 set 4addr on" to loosen wlp27s0 as it was not enslaving itself to the bridge before. I don't know what "4addr" means, but it seems to get me farther. So any tips or insight on what that does would be very welcome. I read a topic about how 4addr can kill the internet connection on a wifi card, but I had good connectivity after setting it to 4addr, but before starting networkd.

Here are my ip addr and ip link results pre- and post- starting systemd-networkd: https://paste.rs/swZ
Here are all the files in /etc/systemd/network: https://paste.rs/des

As you can see, xenbr0 is granted an IPv6 address, but not an IPv4 one. I've set DHCP=ipv4 for xenbr0, so this confuses me. I don't know how much this has to do with my ability to connect to the network.
