WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why mikrotik_create_ipv6_pool needs a policy

Creating an IPv6 pool is a reversible configuration change that modifies router state. It does not delete data (thus not Destructive), does not execute arbitrary commands (thus not Execute), and has no financial impact. The high severity reflects that misuse could disrupt network address allocation and IPv6 connectivity for many clients, affecting network operations and service availability.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'mikrotik_create_ipv6_pool' and description 'Creates an IPv6 pool' indicate data creation that modifies router configuration. The server translates requests into RouterOS commands via API or SSH, affecting live network infrastructure.
