Description


This article describes how to disable VDOM admin.

 

Scope

 

Any supported version of FortiGate.

Solution

 

After the VDOM admin is enabled, even if no VDOMs are available, the default VDOM will be root.
In some cases, users do not need any VDOM (not even the root), but the default VDOM still exists.


In these cases, it is recommended to disable the VDOM admin so that all of the configuration falls under global configuration settings.

To disable the VDOM admin, run the following commands:

 

config global

config system global

set vdom-admin disable

end

 

In FortiOS v7.0.x, use the following command to disable multi-VDOM mode:

 

config global

config system global 

set vdom-mode no-vdom

end
