(vooms) Enabling VDOMs does not cause your FortiGate devce to reboot, but it does log out all active administrator sessions. Traffic continues to pass through FortiGate. Enabling VDOMs restructures both the GUI and CLI, which you will see when you log in again.

It's the defauill management VDOM. You need to add a VDOM for each of your security domains. If you're an MSSP, for example, you might add ‘one VDOM for each client company. if you are an enterprise business, you might add one VDOM for each division of your company. ‘The default inspection-mode is flow, so you can charge NGFW Mode from Profile-based (default) to Policy- based directly in System > Settings for the VDOM. The profile-based NGFW is the traditional mode and you must create antivirus, web filter, and IPS profiles, ‘which are then applied to the policy. Policy-based mode is actually a new policy mode. You can add applications and web filtering categories directly to a policy without having to first create and configure application control or web filtering profiles. NGFW mode is a per-VDOM setting. If you set NGFW mode to Profile-based, you can configure policies in that VDOM for either flow or proxy inspection. However, if NGFW mode is Policy-based, then the inspection mode forall policies in that VDOM is always flow and there is no option available in the policy to change it. ‘Switching between NGFW modes results in the loss of all current policies configured in the VDOM. If you don’t want this to happen, or you just want to experiment with a particular NGFW mode, consider creating a new VDOM for testing purposes. You could also back up your configuration before switching modes. Operation mode is a per-VDOM setting. You can combine transparent mode VDOMs with NAT mode VDOMs on the same physical FortiGate.

Bach interface must be in a different subnet and each subret forms a different broadcast domain. FortiGate routes IP packets based on the IP header information, overwriting the source MAC address. So, if a client sends a packet to a server connected to a different FortiGate interface, the packet arrives at the server with a FortiGate MAC address, instead of the client MAC address. In transparent operation mode, FortiGate forwards frames without changing the MAC addresses. When the client receives a packet from a server connected to a different FortiGate interface, the frame contains the real MAG address of the server—FortiGate doesn’t rewrite the MAC header. FortiGate acts as a Layer 2 bridge or switch. So, the interfaces do not have IP addresses and, by default, all belong to the same broadcast domain, This means that you can install a transparent mode FortiGate in a customer network without having to change the customer's IP address plan. Some customers, especially large organizations, don’t want to reconfigure thousands of devices to define a new internal network that is separate from their external network. A transparent mode FortiGate device acts as a transparent bridge. What does that mean? It means that FortiGate has a MAC address table that contains, among other things, the interface that must be used to reach each MAC address. FortiGate populates this table with information taken from the source MAC address. of each frame. FortiGate, as a transparent switch, splits the network into multiple collision domains, reducing the traffic in the network and improving the response time. FortiGate Infrast 7.2 Study Guide 1 Virtual Domains (VOOMs) DO NOT REPRINT © Forward Domains + By default, all interfaces on a VDOM belong to the same broadcast domain; even interfaces with different VLAN IDs + Broadcast domains that contain multiple interfaces can be very large and add unnecessary broadcast traffic to some LAN segments + Use this command to subdivide a VDOM into multiple broadcast domains: FRTIneT, Peer Fett Ate Rem = By defaull, in Wansparent operation mode, each VDCM forms @ separate forward domain, however, interfaces do not. How does this affect the network? Until you change the initial VDOM configuration, all interfaces, regardless of their VLAN ID, are part of the same broadcast domain. FortiGate broadcasts from every interface in the VDOM in order to find any unknown destination MAC address. On large networks, this could generate massive broadcast traffic and overwhelming replies—a broadcast storm.

The firmware on your ForliGale device and some settings, such as system time, apply to the entire device—they are not specific to each VDOM. However, you can configure most settings differently for each VDOM. Some examples are firewall policies, firewall objects, static routes, and protection profiles.

To access the global configuration settings on the CLI, you must enter config global to enter into the global context. After that, you can run global commands and change global configuration settings. To access per-VDOM configuration settings on the CLI, you must enter config vdom, then enter edit followed by the DOM name. From the VDOM context, you can run VDOM-specific commands and change per-VDOM configuration settings. It is important to note that VDOM names are case sensitive. If you enter the name using the incorrect case, FortiGate creates anew VOOM. Regardless of which context you are in (global or VDOM), you can use the sudo keyword to run diagnostics commands in a context different from your current ore. This allows you to run global and per-VDOM commands, for example, without switching back and forth between the global and per-VDOM contexts.

The name for any global profile must start with "g-" for identification. Global profiles are available as read-only for VDOM- level administrators and can be edited or deleted only in the global settings. Each security feature has at least one default global profile.

Wilh separale ForliGale devives, you would normally connect a network cable and corfigure routing and policies between them. But VDOMs are on the same FortiGate. So, how should you route traffic between them? The solution is inter-VDOM links. Inter-VDOM links are a type of virtual interface that route traffic between \VDOMSs. This removes the need to loop a physical cable between two VDOMs. In the case of a NAT-o-NAT inter-VDOM link, both s des of the link must be on the same IP subnet, because you are creating a point-to-point network connection. Note that like using inter-VLAN routing, Layer 3 must be involved—you cannot create an inter-VDOM link between Layer 2 transparent mode VDOMs. At least one of the VDOMs must be operating in NAT mode. This, among other benefits, prevents potential Layer 2 loops.

By default, the interfaces in each inter-VDOM link are assigned to the root VDOM. To use these interfaces ‘o accelerate inter-VDOM link traffic, assign each interface in the pair to the VDOMs that you want to ofload traffic between. For example, if you have added a VDOM named New-VDOM to a FortiGate with NP4 processors, you can click System > Network > Interfaces and ecit the npuO-vlinkt interface and set the VDOM to New-VDOM. This results in an accelerated inter-VDOM link between root and New-/DOM. FortiGate Infrast
