What mikrotik_create_dhcpv6_option does on MikroTik Cursor MCP
AI agents use mikrotik_create_dhcpv6_option 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.
Why mikrotik_create_dhcpv6_option is rated Medium
This tool creates network configuration options on a MikroTik router. While reversible (can be deleted), it modifies router state and could be misused to inject malicious DHCPv6 options affecting network clients. The blast radius is significant in a network context (potential client misconfiguration, traffic redirection), but it's not irreversible (Destructive) or commanding arbitrary execution (Execute).
From the tool's definition Creates a DHCPv6 option - the verb 'creates' indicates data creation/modification. The tool adds a new DHCPv6 configuration option to the router, which is a reversible write operation.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs mikrotik_create_dhcpv6_option safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and MikroTik Cursor MCP, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For mikrotik_create_dhcpv6_option, this is the rule to start with:
mikrotik_create_dhcpv6_option stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect MikroTik Cursor MCP, apply this rule, and every mikrotik_create_dhcpv6_option call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about mikrotik_create_dhcpv6_option
Creates a DHCPv6 option. It is categorised as a Write tool in the MikroTik Cursor MCP MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the MikroTik Cursor MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for mikrotik_create_dhcpv6_option: 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 MikroTik Cursor MCP. Nothing to install.
mikrotik_create_dhcpv6_option is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the mikrotik_create_dhcpv6_option 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 mikrotik_create_dhcpv6_option. 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.
mikrotik_create_dhcpv6_option is provided by the MikroTik Cursor MCP server (kevinpez/mikrotik-cursor-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
