Fortianalyzer VM

[unknown1020]

good morning friends.

Could you help me with this query.

I have a virtual fortianalyzer and I notice that the ADOM License option indicates "unlicensed".
Could you tell me what that option is for?
On my Faz I have a synchronized FG.

Greetings,
If you like to include ADOMs in your FortiAnalyzer VM, you'll require additional license (if requirement is more than 5 ADOMs).

What function does that option serve? is it necessary?

Greetings,
you can refer following link to get more details about ADOMs.

Basically, you can use ADOMs to group devices and restrict administrative access based on ADOMs.
