Administrators Settings enables you to configure some common settings for all
administrator accounts, including the idle timeout (how much time must pass
without activity before the FortiAnalyzer unit logs out an administrator), the
language for the web-based manager, and the PIN for the LCD panel. You can
also enable or disable administrative domains (ADOMs).

To configure administrators, go to System > Admin.
