# update_firewall_address A write tool on the Fortimanager MCP server. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `update_firewall_address`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/update-firewall-address ## Facts - Tool: `update_firewall_address` - 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": "update_firewall_address", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why update_firewall_address is rated Medium This tool modifies firewall address objects, which is a reversible Write operation. It does not delete data (Destructive), execute arbitrary code (Execute), nor involve financial transactions (Financial). The blast radius is high because misconfigured firewall addresses could disrupt network traffic or create security gaps, but the operation itself is reversible if corrected. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'update_firewall_address' indicates modification of firewall address configurations. Sibling tools like 'add_device_to_group', 'add_interface_to_zone', 'add_ips_rule' confirm this server performs network/security configuration changes." ## Use case AI agents use update_firewall_address 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": { "update_firewall_address": { "limits": [ { "counter": "update_firewall_address_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.
