WHAT IT DOES

What mikrotik_create_ipv6_nat_rule does on MikroTik Cursor MCP

AI agents use mikrotik_create_ipv6_nat_rule 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 IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why mikrotik_create_ipv6_nat_rule needs a policy

This tool creates new NAT (Network Address Translation) rules on MikroTik routers. While reversible (rules can be deleted), it modifies router network behavior in ways that could disrupt traffic routing, create security gaps, or redirect network flows if misconfigured. The blast radius is high because malicious NAT rules could intercept, redirect, or expose network traffic.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'mikrotik_create_ipv6_nat_rule' with description 'Creates an IPv6 NAT rule' indicates creation/modification of network translation rules on a MikroTik router via API/SSH.
