ACS 4.3 VM virtual NIC type

Quick question to the group today.  When I create a VM in ACS using VMware as the hypervisor it creates machines with the e1000 adapter.  Where can I change this setting to use the vmxnet3 as the default NIC type.

Hi, the NIC type can be configured for a new template when registering
it in the UI, or for existing templates/VMs via API with
addResourceDetail [1].  Example cloudmonkey commands:

> list resourcedetails resourceid=<vm_id> resourcetype=UserVm key=nicAdapter
> add resourcedetail resourcetype=UserVm resourceid=<vm_id>
details[0].key=nicAdapter details[0].value=Vmxnet3

Best regards,
Kirk
