202120 - ADOM Not Found on FortiManager

Uploading..Agent error code #202120 indicates that the ADOM configured on the knoc does not exist on FortiManager, or the administrator the agent authenticates as cannot see it.

Common causes include:

A typo in the ADOM field of the Knocknoc backend configuration. ADOM names are case-sensitive The administrator account is restricted to a different set of ADOMs The ADOM was renamed or deleted after the knoc was configured FortiManager is not running in ADOM mode, so the name has no meaning

Steps to Resolve

Confirm the ADOM Name

In FortiManager, open the ADOM selector at the top of the interface Note the exact name of the ADOM holding the target devices Enter it in the ADOM field of the Knocknoc backend configuration, matching case exactly

The default ADOM on a FortiManager that has not been subdivided is usually root.

Confirm the Administrator's ADOM Access

In FortiManager, go to System Settings > Administrators Open the account Knocknoc authenticates as Check its Administrative Domain setting. An account limited to specific ADOMs cannot see the others at all

Confirm ADOM Mode Is Enabled

Go to System Settings > Advanced > Advanced Settings Check whether ADOM mode is enabled With ADOMs disabled, use root as the ADOM name

Run the Knoc Validator

The Fortinet backend can check its own configuration. Open the knoc and run Validate to have the agent list the ADOMs it can actually see, with a suggested value for the field.
