Why log_event_vpn needs a policy

The tool naming pattern (log_event_*) is consistent with read-only operations on FortiOS systems that retrieve log entries. No description is provided, lowering confidence, but the prefix 'log_event' strongly suggests this retrieves or queries VPN-related events without side effects. This fits the Read category (search, list, get, fetch).

From the tool's definition Tool name 'log_event_vpn' indicates retrieval of VPN event logs; the 'log' and 'event' components suggest querying historical data rather than modification or execution.

How to control log_event_vpn

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and FortiOS 7 6 X MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for log_event_vpn:

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

log_event_vpn 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 FortiOS 7 6 X MCP Server — 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.
