The title says it all, are custom fields set on a prefix inherited to its child prefixes? |

No. Nothing is inherited by a prefix from its parent. Not tenant, not role, not site, and not custom fields. The only thing I know of in Netbox with an "inheritance-like" model is config contexts, but these can only be inherited from a pre-set list of object types which are ancestors of Device or Virtual Machine, and Prefix is not one of those. |
