You can specify replication settings when you create a replica or on an existing replica. You can specify some replication settings for multiple replicas at once from one replica. You must have Manager access to a replica to set replication settings for it.

Caution Replication settings are not intended to be used as a security measure.

This table summarizes the available replication settings. An asterisk (*) marks the settings you can manage for multiple replicas from a central source replica.
