# add_vdom A write tool on the Fortimanager MCP server. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `add_vdom`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/add-vdom ## Facts - Tool: `add_vdom` - Server: Fortimanager (`jmpijll/fortimanager-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp.md - Homepage: https://github.com/jmpijll/fortimanager-mcp - Risk category: Write (Medium risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "add_vdom", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why add_vdom is rated Medium The tool likely adds a VDOM (Virtual Domain) configuration object to FortiManager, which is a reversible operation that modifies system state but does not permanently delete data or execute arbitrary commands. The high severity reflects that VDOMs are fundamental network security constructs, so misuse could significantly impact network segmentation and security policies. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'add_vdom' indicates creating or adding a virtual domain to FortiManager; sibling tools like 'add_device_to_group', 'add_interface_to_zone', 'add_policies_to_block', and 'add_template_to_group' all perform reversible modifications to FortiManager…" ## Use case AI agents use add_vdom to create or update resources in Fortimanager, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Fortimanager environment. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Fortimanager: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "add_vdom": { "limits": [ { "counter": "add_vdom_rate", "window": "minute", "max": 30, "scope": "grant" } ] } } } ``` ## Other tools on Fortimanager (583) - `bulk_delete_security_profile_entries` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/bulk-delete-security-profile-entries.md - `clear_database_cache` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/clear-database-cache.md - `delete_adom_revision` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-adom-revision.md - `delete_central_dnat_policy` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-central-dnat-policy.md - `delete_central_snat_policy` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-central-snat-policy.md - `delete_certificate_template` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-certificate-template.md - `delete_cli_script` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-cli-script.md - `delete_cli_template` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-cli-template.md - `delete_cli_template_group` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-cli-template-group.md - `delete_custom_application` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-custom-application.md - `delete_device_blueprint` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-device-blueprint.md - `delete_device_group` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-device-group.md - `delete_dns_filter_domain` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-dns-filter-domain.md - `delete_dynamic_interface` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-dynamic-interface.md - `delete_external_threat_feed` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-external-threat-feed.md - `delete_firewall_address` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-firewall-address.md - `delete_firewall_policy` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-firewall-policy.md - `delete_firewall_zone` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-firewall-zone.md - `delete_fortiap_profile` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-fortiap-profile.md - `delete_fortiextender` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-fortiextender.md - `delete_internet_service_fqdn` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-internet-service-fqdn.md - `delete_internet_service_group` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-internet-service-group.md - `delete_ip_pool` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-ip-pool.md - `delete_ips_sensor` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-ips-sensor.md - `delete_ipsec_phase1_interface` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-ipsec-phase1-interface.md - `delete_ipsec_phase2_interface` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-ipsec-phase2-interface.md - `delete_ipsec_template` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-ipsec-template.md - `delete_meta_field` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-meta-field.md - `delete_object_metadata` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-object-metadata.md - `delete_policy_block` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-policy-block.md - …and 553 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
