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 tab, select the unit you want to configure.
2. On the device dashboard toolbar, go to Dashboard > System Information.
3. Select the Enable link in the Virtual Domain field.
To create a virtual domain:
1. In the Device Manager tab, select the unit you want to configure.
2. In the lower content pane tab bar, go to the Virtual Domain tab, then select Create New to create a new VDOM.
| The Virtual Domain tab may not be visible in the lower content pane tab bar. See “View managed devices” for more information. |
After the first VDOM is created you can create additional VDOMs by right-clicking on the existing VDOM and selecting Add VDOM from the right-click menu.
3. Enter the name, operation mode and an optional description for the new VDOM. If you selected Transparent mode, you also need to enter the management IP and mask, as well as the gateway.
4. Select Submit to create the new VDOM.
