Administrative Domains (ADOMs)

About administrative domains (ADOMs)

If ADOMs are enabled and you log in as any other administrator, you enter the ADOM assigned to your account. A subset of the typical menus or CLI commands appear, allowing access only to only logs, reports, quarantine files, content archives, IP aliases, and LDAP queries specific to your ADOM. You cannot access Global Configuration, or enter other ADOMs.

By default, administrator accounts other than the admin account are assigned to the root ADOM, which includes all devices in the device list. By creating ADOMs that contain a subset of devices in the device list, and assigning them to administrator accounts, you can restrict other administrator accounts to a subset of the FortiAnalyzer unit’s total devices or VDOMs.

The admin administrator account cannot be restricted to an ADOM. Other administrators are restricted to their ADOM, and cannot configure ADOMs or Global Configuration.

The maximum number of ADOMs varies by FortiAnalyzer model.
