Creating and editing virtual domains
Creating and editing virtual domains in the FortiManager system is very similar to creating and editing VDOMs using the FortiGate Web-based Manager.
You need to enable virtual domains before you can create one.
To enable virtual domains:
1. On the Device Manager module, select the unit you want to configure.
2. On the device dashboard tool-bar, select System > Dashboard > System Information.
3. Select the Enable link in the Virtual Domain field.
To create a virtual domain:
1. In the Device Manager module, select the unit you want to configure.
2. On the device dashboard tool-bar, select Virtual Domain, select Create New.
3. After the first VDOM is created you can use the right-click context menu to create additional VDOMs, select Add VDOM.

4. Enter the name, operation mode and an optional description for the new VDOM. If you select Transparent mode you will also need to enter the management IP and mask as well as the gateway.
5. Click Submit to create the new VDOM.
The new VDOM will appear in the list.
