# aos8_get_alarms List active AOS8 alarms from show alarms. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `aos8_get_alarms`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/aos8-get-alarms ## Facts - Tool: `aos8_get_alarms` - Server: Hpe Networking (`secure-ssid/hpe-networking-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp.md - Homepage: https://github.com/secure-ssid/hpe-networking-mcp - Risk category: Read (Low risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Allowed ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "aos8_get_alarms", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why aos8_get_alarms is rated Low This tool queries and retrieves existing alarm information from AOS8 devices. It performs a read-only operation ('list') with no side effects, configuration changes, or command execution. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an attacker gains visibility into network alerts but cannot alter state or trigger actions. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'aos8_get_alarms' and description 'List active AOS8 alarms from `show alarms`' indicate retrieval of alarm/alert data with no modification or execution capability." ## Use case AI agents call aos8_get_alarms to retrieve information from Hpe Networking without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Hpe Networking: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "aos8_get_alarms": {} } } ``` ## Other tools on Hpe Networking (594) - `aos8_execute_migration_rollback` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/aos8-execute-migration-rollback.md - `aos8_logout` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/aos8-logout.md - `apstra_delete_connectivity_template` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/apstra-delete-connectivity-template.md - `clear_alerts` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/clear-alerts.md - `clearpass_delete_endpoint` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/clearpass-delete-endpoint.md - `clearpass_delete_guest` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/clearpass-delete-guest.md - `delete_aaa_profile` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/delete-aaa-profile.md - `delete_auth_profile` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/delete-auth-profile.md - `delete_auth_server` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/delete-auth-server.md - `delete_authz_policy` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/delete-authz-policy.md - `delete_config_assignment` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/delete-config-assignment.md - `delete_device_groups` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/delete-device-groups.md - `delete_device_notes` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/delete-device-notes.md - `delete_glp_role_assignment` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/delete-glp-role-assignment.md - `delete_glp_scope_group` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/delete-glp-scope-group.md - `delete_glp_scope_group_scopes` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/delete-glp-scope-group-scopes.md - `delete_gw_policy` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/delete-gw-policy.md - `delete_mac_registration` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/delete-mac-registration.md - `delete_mpsk_registration` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/delete-mpsk-registration.md - `delete_network_profile` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/delete-network-profile.md - `delete_notification_rule` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/delete-notification-rule.md - `delete_overlay_ssid` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/delete-overlay-ssid.md - `delete_report` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/delete-report.md - `delete_report_run` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/delete-report-run.md - `delete_role` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/delete-role.md - `delete_role_acl` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/delete-role-acl.md - `delete_server_group` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/delete-server-group.md - `delete_site_collections_bulk` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/delete-site-collections-bulk.md - `delete_sites_bulk` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/delete-sites-bulk.md - `delete_static_tag` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp/delete-static-tag.md - …and 564 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/hpe-networking-mcp.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
