I am trying to delete the route 10.120.100.0 on interface ens192 but get the error: SIOCDELRT: No such process

Can anyone tell me how to delete this route?

Did you try `route del -net 10.120.100.0 netmask 255.255.255.0`? or `ip route del 10.120.100.0 dev ens192`? (`ip route ...` and `route ...` are two different commands) — Patrick Mevzek, Apr 02 '18 at 17:44
@PatrickMevzek [root@e2e-telco-aa1 dhclient]# ip route del 10.120.100.0 ens192 Error: either "to" is duplicate, or "ens192" is a garbage. [root@e2e-telco-aa1 dhclient]# I did try the first command and the second gave the output above — Brian Harkness, Apr 02 '18 at 17:45
@PatrickMevzek I get the: RTNETLINK answers: No such process — Brian Harkness, Apr 02 '18 at 17:47
And the full path: `ip route del 10.120.100.0/24 dev ens192 proto kernel scope link src 10.120.100.132 metric 100`? — Patrick Mevzek, Apr 02 '18 at 17:53
@PatrickMevzek That worked, however, when i run `systemctl restart network` it comes right back, so on a reboot it will return. — Brian Harkness, Apr 02 '18 at 18:01

This route to network 10.120.100.0/24 is not a static route (one that you configure), but it's there because your interface ens192 has an IP configured in that subnet (10.120.100.132 it seems.)

In order to get rid of that route, you would need to remove the IP 10.120.100.132 from interface ens192.

It's unclear why you would want to do that, considering your default gateway (10.120.100.1) seems to be using that ens192 interface on that network 10.120.100.132...

The interface ens192 is set to DHCP – Brian Harkness Apr 02 '18 at 18:13
@BrianHarkness That still doesn't explain why you want to remove the on-link route. It would be more effective to just unplug the Ethernet cable. – Michael Hampton Apr 02 '18 at 18:56
