Network Preferences
Network preferences are network-specific properties that apply to a network. They are different from global preferences (or database-wide preferences), which apply to the entire database.
Network preferences are stored with the network and apply to all users.
By default, network preferences can be edited by all users. However, these preferences can be protected in order to allow only edits by owners (all owner roles. See User Permissions for more information) to be saved.
There are a large number of network preferences.

Most network preferences are copied and pasted whenever the network itself is copied and pasted.
Choice lists represent a special case and as such deserve careful attention. Network choice lists can be copied and pasted separately onto a network of the same type or to the database choice lists. Please refer to Merging (Copying) Choice Lists for further details.
