Which value takes in place if an advacedSetting is not set

Hi team.

Just a silly question.

Which value should I consider for a VM's advanced setting, if it is not set?

Let's say the setting for modification of connected devices (isolation.device.edit.disable). If I run a command to report this setting for each vm, I only get a small list from my total of VMs.

I'm assuming that's because not all VMs have that advancedsetting set.

If my assumption is correct, could I say that the rest of VMs  do allow connected device modification?

You will have to lookup the defaults.
In this case (from Security Considerations to Configure VMware Tools) the default is disabled.

A good source of information is the Security Hardening Guide.
They do list the defaults.

Thanks LucD, that's what I was looking for... the default values
