Auto-Create Application

Auto-Create Application

Note

This feature applies to FortiGate/FortiOS VDOMs only.

Normally, the FortiGate administrator can add a VDOM to FIC as an application by enabling the first user on the VDOM for FIC (if the VDOM has not already been assigned to a realm). So when FIC receives a VDOM list from FortiOS with a new VDOM with a user enabled for FIC service, it automatically adds that VDOM as an application. This may inadvertently allow unintended applications to consume your FIC quotas or credits. To prevent this from happening, FIC has introduced the Auto-create application option to make the "add-auth-client-on-creation-of-first-user" feature optional in its global settings.

By default, Auto-Create Application is enabled. You can click the button to disable it.
