Device Manager module layout
The Device Manager module now has collapsed ADOM navigation, where all of the ADOMs are displayed on the tree-menu. Unlike FortiManager v4.0 MR3, you do not need to enter each ADOM individually. The Device Manager module has the following changes:
The device groups, All FortiGate, All FortiCarrier, custom device groups, and device profiles are displayed under each ADOM.
The number of devices is displayed in parentheses next to each device group name.
The All FortiSwitch device group is displayed in a separate, dedicated ADOM at the bottom of the tree-menu.
Script and Web Portal features are disabled by default. You can enable these advanced configuration options under System Systems > Admin > Admin Settings. Select Show Script, and Show Web Portal to enable on these options on the Device Manager module tree-menu.
