RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs list_device_vaps safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and FortiManager MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For list_device_vaps, this is the rule to start with:

list_device_vaps Allowed

list_device_vaps is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect FortiManager MCP Server, apply this rule, and every list_device_vaps call is checked against it from then on.
