Drop the `-n` (`--noerror`) flag from the `vtysh -b` invocation called by the
init script responsible for starting FRR. This ensures that errors in the
configuration file is propagated to the administrator, and prevents a node from
entering a production network while running an essentially undefined
configuration (a behaviour that I can personally attest to has the potential to
cause disastrous network outages - documented in more detail in Cumulus
Networks CS#12791).
Silently ignoring errors also leads to the rather odd behaviour that starting
FRR will ostensibly succeed, while reloading it immediately after - without
changing the configuration - will fail. This is due to the fact that the `-n`
flag is not used while reloading.
The use of the `-n` flag appears to have been introduced without any
explanation in commit
