Technical Tip: How to enable VDOM from FortiOS v6.2 via CLI
Description
This article describes how to enable VDOM from FortiOS v6.2 via CLI.
Scope
FortiGate, FortiOS v6.2.
Solution
Use the command:
config system global
set vdom-mode [no-vdom | split-vdom | multi-vdom]
end
split-vdom –> 'FG-traffic' VDOM will be created, and the user will not be allowed to create additional VDOMs.
multi-vdom –> User is allowed to create multiple VDOMs.
Note:
In later versions, for example, FortiOS v7.4 or v7.6, the entire command needs to be typed out.
The ? (question mark) does not list it as an available parameter, as shown here:
config system global
(global) # set v
vip-arp-range Controls the number of ARPs that the FortiGate sends for a Virtual IP (VIP) address range.
(global) # set vdom-mode ← Type the entire set command and '?' (without quote).
no-vdom Disable multiple VDOMs mode.
multi-vdom Enable multiple VDOMs mode.
