Multi vdom snmp

[rezafathi]

Hi

I have multi vdom configuration.

Mgmt vdom : management and root vdom. I want to enable snmp to monitor fgt with zabbix. How can i do that?

Hi

You enable only from management VDOM.

System > SNMP.

Greetings,

Please make sure about the following things when you configure SNMP in a multi-vdom environment.

1) Make sure that the interface where the polling is set belongs to the management VDOM and allows SNMP processing:

config global

config system interface

  edit <SNMP_interface>

    append allowaccess snmp

      set vdom <management_VDOM>

end

2) Make sure that the correct VDOM is selected as management VDOM:

config global

config system global

  set management-vdom <management_VDOM>

end 

3) If trusted hosts are configured in Fortigate, make sure that the user belongs to the management_VDOM

config system admin

  edit "test_user"

    set trusthost1 80.80.80.0 255.255.255.0 <----- Ip from SNMPmanager.

    set accprofile "super_admin_readonly"

    set vdom "root" <---- select the management VDOM

  next

end

4) Make sure about the routing. Management vdom should be able to reach the SNMP Manager.

Regards!
