The author’s registry entry marks them as required.
Optional settings from the registry entry, left out of the block above:
MCP_TRANSPORT (Must be stdio for this install. The server itself defaults to http; set http only when deploying it as a service), SDWAN_VERIFY_SSL (Verify the vManage TLS certificate. Prefer SDWAN_CA_BUNDLE over disabling this), SDWAN_CA_BUNDLE (Path to a CA bundle for a private-CA or self-signed vManage certificate), SDWAN_ENABLE_WRITES (Register the configuration-changing tools. Read-only when unset).
