$ tccutil reset All This command resets the other permissions (i.e. camera, microphone) but doesn't reset the Local Network permission.

OS: macOS 15.0

Indeed. Some privacy related subsystems use the TCC infrastructure that’s reset by tccutil and some do not. Local network privacy (LNP) is one of the ones that does not [1]. On iOS this isn’t really a big deal because you can reset LNP by deleting the app. That’s tricky on macOS. I encourage you to file an enhancement request requesting a mechanism to reset LNP.

Please post your bug number, just for the record.
