Assigning network interfaces and admin users to VDOMs

Assigning network interfaces and admin users to VDOMs

By default, all network interfaces are assigned to the root virtual domain. After you have created the virtual domain, you can assign network interfaces to it.

To assign a network interface to a virtual domain:

  1. Go to Networking > Interface.
  2. Double-click an interface configuration or click Create New to create one.
  3. Configure interface settings and select the virtual domain.
  4. Save the configuration.

When virtual domain administrators log into the FortiADC system, they only see configuration settings and data for the virtual domain that you assigned them to. They do not see the Virtual Domains menu in the navigation pane.

To create an administrator for a virtual domain:

  1. Go to System > Administrator.
  2. Click Create New to create an administrator.
  3. Configure administrator settings and select the virtual domain.
  4. Save the configuration.
