## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "mikrotik_add_ip_address",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why mikrotik_add_ip_address is rated Medium

This tool creates new IP address configurations on router interfaces. While the action is reversible (can be undone by removing the address), it modifies critical network infrastructure state. The severity is 'high' because misconfiguration could disrupt network connectivity or enable network attacks, affecting availability and security.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'mikrotik_add_ip_address' and description 'Adds an IP address to an interface' indicate data creation/modification. This creates new network configuration entries on a router, which is reversible (can be removed via corresponding delete operation)."

## Use case

AI agents use mikrotik_add_ip_address to create or update resources in MikroTik Cursor MCP, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your MikroTik Cursor MCP environment.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches MikroTik Cursor MCP:
