Hello I am new to Fortinet world Currently interested in Fortigate / FortiManager to start with. Learning on my own. Home Lab. I want to practice VDOMs but the Evaluation is limited to 1 VDOM  ROOT default. Just need 2 VDOMs Any advise on how to workaround it for evaluation purposes? Fortinet sales/support probably won't accept a special demo copy unless you are already a customer with valid support contract

Thanks

    What do you have ? have you double check the status

     

    i.e

    get system  status | grep virt

     

    Can you post the get sys status output ?

    it shows:

    Max number of virtual domains:  1

    it's expected as per the FortiGate Product Matrix, the Eval version is 14 days and single VDOM (ROOT).

    Tried to enable vdom from CLI or GUI but it's refused (Max=1). Same thing even with older Eval version 5

    Will the eval is to give you a taste. So you need to go back to sales and see what other option that they have. Maybe they can loan a VM with 2 vdom support, or demo the multi-vdoms.

     

    Did you talk to sales or your partner? Nothing anybody can do here for you.
