Can not remove static route from AIX 5.3

Dear all,

I Try to remove a static route with smitty, but recieve this error:

Method error (/usr/lib/methods/chginet):
0514-009 Cannot delete an object from the device
configuration database.
0821-216 chginet: Cannot delete route (net,192.168.30.101,192.168.30.1) from CuAt.

My routing table looks like this (the route I want to remove is marked red):

biete 11:40:48 root:/u01# netstat -rn

Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use If Exp Groups

Route Tree for Protocol Family 2 (Internet):

192.168.30.255 192.168.30.121 UHSb 0 5 en3 - -

The command with smitty looks like this:

Destination TYPE host
* DESTINATION Address [192.168.30.101]
(dotted decimal or symbolic name)
* Default GATEWAY Address [192.168.30.1]

I also tried Destination TYPE net, but error the same.

I tried to delete route with command line, but got some errors:

biete 11:46:02 root:/u01# route delete 192.168.30.101 gw 192.168.30.1
0821-287 gw: bad value
biete 11:46:20 root:/u01# route delete 192.168.30.101
0821-279 writing to routing socket: The process does not exist.
biete 11:46:24 root:/u01#

Can anyone please help me with some tips how to delete unwanted route?

dump_sockdfr

DUMP_SOCKDFR(8) 					      System Manager's Manual						   DUMP_SOCKDFR(8)

NAME

       dump_sockdfr -  Display contents of frozen route file for SOCKS server

SYNOPSIS

       dump_sockdfr [infile]

DESCRIPTION

       dump_sockdfr reads in a frozen route file for the SOCKS server and produces a listing of its contents on the standard output.

       The argument is optional; if omitted, /etc/sockd.fr is assumed.

       The frozen route file is produced by make_sockdfr and is essentially the memory image of the parsed route file. Using the frozen route file
       can reduce the start-up delay of the SOCKS server program since it no longer has to parse the file contents.

       When the SOCKS server starts, it always looks for the frozen route file /etc/sockd.fr first. If that file is not found, it  then  tries	to
       use  the  plain-text  route file /etc/sockd.route. If you use frozen route file, you must remember to run make_sockdfr every time after you
       modify the plain-text file or the SOCKS server will continue to use the frozen version of a previous route file.

FILES

       /etc/sockd.fr, /etc/sockd.route

SEE ALSO

       make_sockdfr(8), sockd.fr(5), sockd.route(5)
