Create, update, or delete a network.
AI agents call manage_network to permanently remove resources in Unifi — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
The tool explicitly supports deleting a network, which is an irreversible action. Deleting a network configuration could cause widespread connectivity loss across all devices on that network segment. Per the rules, when a tool spans categories, the most severe applies — Destructive takes precedence over Write (create/update).
From the tool's definition 'Create, update, or delete a network' — the delete capability makes this potentially destructive and irreversible
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Create, update, or delete a network. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Unifi MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Unifi MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for manage_network: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Unifi. Nothing to install.
manage_network is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the manage_network rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for manage_network. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
manage_network is provided by the Unifi MCP server (pproenca/unifi-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
