VPN Instance

VPN Instance

Map the VPN instances in the source configuration to VDOMs in the output configuration.

By default, all VPN instances are mapped to VDOMs with the same name. You can modify this default mapping as required by renaming VDOMs and removing VPN instances from the conversion.

Setting Description
VDOM Select Select/Unselect the VDOM item.
VDOM Rename Rename the VDOM name.

VDOM Mode

Change the VDOM mode in the output result.

Information of Configurations Source configuration file names are shown in the table as a link. Click the link to see the content. The file won’t show if it’s too large.

Managed Device Name

The name of the managed device which the converted interface or route configuration would be imported in FortiManager. (Only available when the output format is FortiManager)

Target Device Switch Interface - Interface/Port

If there are virtual switches in the selected target device, FortiConverter will list the member ports of the virtual switches. If an interface in the list is going to be used in the configuration, it should first be detached from the virtual switch. Click "X" on the interface to detach it. Please note that a detached interface cannot be re-added later by FortiConverter.
