FortiManager: Safe to enable the ADOM feature in production?
Good Morning,
I am learning and putting a plan together to create and apply global policies, and understand i will need to use ADOMs to do that, and they are disabled by default. Our FortiManager (7.4.1) is currently managing all of our production Fortigates. When i make the change, will the production Fortigates be affected at all?
Thanks,
Jesse
By default, ADOMs are disabled. Enabling and configuring ADOMs can only be done by super user administrators.
When ADOMs are enabled, the Device Manager, Policy & Objects, AP Manager, and VPN Manager panes are displayed per ADOM. If FortiAnalyzer features are enabled, the FortiView, Log View, Incidents & Events, and Reports panes are also displayed per ADOM. You select the ADOM you need to work in when you log into the FortiManager unit. Switching between ADOMs.
To enable the ADOM feature:
Log in to the FortiManager as a super user administrator.
Go to Dashboard.
In the System Information widget, toggle the Administrative Domain switch to ON.
You will be automatically logged out of the FortiManager and returned to the log in screen.
