Gets the current DNS cache
AI agents call mikrotik_get_dns_cache to retrieve information from MikroTik Cursor MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries DNS cache state without modifying, deleting, or executing operations. It is a straightforward read operation that retrieves existing configuration data from the router. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an attacker gains visibility into DNS query history but cannot alter router configuration or conduct further attacks through this tool alone.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_dns_cache' and description 'Gets the current DNS cache' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects.
