This tool retrieves OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) neighbor information, which is a read-only query of network routing data. It has no side effects, does not execute commands, does not create or delete data, and does not involve financial transactions. The low severity reflects that network topology information is generally non-sensitive configuration data in enterprise networks.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'getOspfNeighbors' and description 'Get OSPF neighbor devices for the site gateway' indicate a query operation that retrieves network topology information without modifying any state.

How to control getOspfNeighbors

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Tplink Omada, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for getOspfNeighbors:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "getOspfNeighbors": {}
  }
}

getOspfNeighbors is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Tplink Omada — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
