Technical Tip: non-management VDOMs queries using SNMP v3
| Description | This article describes how to enable non-management VDOMs queries using SNMP v3 on FortiOS 7.6. |
| Scope | FortiGate. |
| Solution | Although non-management and management VDOMs perform queries using SNMP v3, the example below shows how to enable a non-management VDOM to send queries. In the topology below, Device01 IP Address 192.168.2.100 connects to the port on FortiGate for the non-management VDOM, and SNMP v3 queries from non-management VDOMs are enabled. Device02 IP Address 192.168.1.200 connects to the port on FortiGate for the management VDOM. With this configuration, SNMP queries are performed by both the non-management and the management VDOMs.
FortiGate offers the following commands to enable this configuration. Enable non-management VDOM queries: show full-configuration config system snmp sysinfo set non-mgmt-vdom-query disable <- Enable. end This example uses the SNMP walk to confirm that both management and non-management VDOMs are performing SNMP queries to Device01 and Device02.
