Network configuration ifcfg files are overwritten at boot and contain a comment "Generated by dracut initrd"

Issue

• The system's network configuration is always overwritten after a reboot. The new, unexpected, ifcfg files begin with a comment that they were made by dracut initrd

  $ cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ens192
