WHAT IT DOES

What router_static_update does on FortiOS 7 6 X MCP Server

RISK

Why router_static_update is rated Medium

This tool updates static route configurations in FortiOS. While the description is empty (lowering confidence slightly), the name unambiguously indicates a Write operation that modifies network routing tables. This is Write rather than Execute because it modifies configuration data rather than executing arbitrary commands.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'router_static_update' indicates modification of router static routing configuration. No description provided, but the 'update' action combined with the 'router_static' resource clearly denotes reversible modification of network routing settings.
