Hi @DTS Engineer (Quinn)
I'm a colleague of @apodila. Like he mentioned in a subsequent comment, yes, it is a regular daemon, launched by launchd. Curious why this would matter though?
And thanks for the FAQ: Going by the below from the What is a local network FAQ (bolding mine), can we assume that a user connecting over VPN to an on-prem server, would NOT see the local network prompt:
A local network is an IP network associated with a broadcast-capable network interface. These interfaces include Wi-Fi and Ethernet (1), but not WWAN or VPN. Any address on a local network is considered to be a local network address.
Finally, is there a way to set this local network permission using MDM or programatically?
Thanks
-Vivek

Apple is bringing some networking protections over from iOS to macOS starting with Sequoia. Please see the following links:

Hi Quinn,
If I’m reading the Radar right, this should be fixed in 11.0b7. Please re-test. Upgraded to Beta 7 (20A5374g) from Beta 6; we are unfortunately still seeing the issue.
Also I don't see any response from Apple on the bug (FB8671424). Would it be possible to post updates / current status / ETA of the fix, etc either here (on this post), or on the bug? Would be really appreciated!
Thanks
Vivek
Hi Quinn,
Any updates on this issue? We are wondering if we should actually put in a workaround for this issue.
Note again the bug #FB8671424.
Thanks
