Wrong.

You should learn what a run path is. A "command not found" just means
that the command isn't in your path. So, provide the path explicitly
or add /sbin to $PATH.
zira:~> ifconfig enp0s25
enp0s25: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ether 30:8d:99:25:ad:3f txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet)
device interrupt 20 memory 0xd2100000-d2120000
No need to be root or use sudo (I've always had /sbin in my path).
