Description

This fails silently:

nid00127:~ # lnetctl net add --net gni6
nid00127:~ # echo $?
0

But other network types throw an error:

nid00127:~ # lnetctl net add --net o2ib50
add:
    - net:
          errno: -2
          descr: "missing mandatory parameters in NI config: 'interface'"
nid00127:~ # lnetctl net add --net tcp50
add:
    - net:
          errno: -2
          descr: "missing mandatory parameters in NI config: 'interface'"
nid00127:~ #
