How change the default network card for a new VM to vmxnet while creating a new VM?

Hi,

I'm looking for the possibility to force the vmxnet nic when creating a new VM. When creating a Windows VM the e1000e is automatically used, but I do not want this. Can I change in config files or somewhere else this automatic setting?

Thanks for your help.

Regards

On the Configure Virtual Machines tab, check the box for "Show Network Adapter Type"

No, I mean as a requirement, so that the customer is not able to select another nic.
