Hi All,

 

I am trying to find if fortigate VM(firmware version - v5.4.7,build6446 ) supports VDOM functionality?

 

I can't able to enable it through CLI as i don't get command for it.

 

Thanks

    Yes it does, I think the command is hidden by default but you should be able to type it in manually.

     

    config system global

    set vdom-admin enable

    end

     

    It will ask you to confirm then log you out of the session.

    Hey,

     

    this will depend on your license:

    Fortigate VM01 does have VDOMs

    Fortigate VM01V does not have VDOMs

     

    The normal Fortigate VM  Models just go End-Of-Order -> So for future there won't be VMs with VDOMs any more...

     

    Br,

    Does anyone can confirm this ?

    I know that it's the information in the 2018-Q1 pricelist but it seems strange and I heard that it may be a mistake

    They do support it, but you need to purchase the correct licensing. There is separate licensing for VDOM support (FGVM0x) vs no-VDOM (FG-VM0xV). In my experience, it's been cheaper to purchase multiple non-VDOM VMs than it has to purchase 1x VM with VDOM.
