## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "router_bgp_update",
    "arguments": {}

## Why router_bgp_update is rated Medium

The tool is named 'router_bgp_update' which clearly indicates it modifies Border Gateway Protocol router configuration. This is a Write operation (reversible modification) rather than Destructive since BGP config changes can typically be reverted. However, severity is high because misconfiguration of BGP routing by an AI agent could cause significant network disruption, route hijacking, or traffic redirection.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'update' which indicates modification of existing data. Tool context shows it operates on 'router_bgp' — BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) routing configuration, a critical network infrastructure component."

## Use case

AI agents use router_bgp_update to create or update resources in FortiOS 7 6 X MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your FortiOS 7 6 X MCP Server environment.
