AI agents call random_ip to retrieve information from TinyFn without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
count | integer | — | Number of IPs to generate |
private | boolean | — | Generate private IPs only (v4 only) |
version | integer | — | IP version: 4 or 6 |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
The tool produces random data (IP addresses) deterministically without reading, modifying, deleting, or executing anything. It is a pure generation function consistent with the server's purpose of providing deterministic utility functions. No data is queried from external sources, modified, or destroyed.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'random_ip' and description states 'Generate random IP address(es).' This generates synthetic data with no side effects, modifications to systems, or execution of external operations.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Generate random IP address(es). It is categorised as a Read tool in the TinyFn MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
random_ip accepts 3 parameters: count, private, version. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the TinyFn MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for random_ip: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches TinyFn. Nothing to install.
random_ip is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the random_ip rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for random_ip. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
random_ip is provided by the TinyFn MCP server (https://api.tinyfn.io/mcp/all/). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
random_ip is one line of TinyFn's registry record.
The record carries the whole server: verified identity, auth posture, risk grade, every tool classified, recommended policy — re-checked continuously.
