# assign_device_to_site Assign or move a device to a site. device_type hint: SWITCH/AP/GATEWAY. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `assign_device_to_site`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/assign-device-to-site ## Facts - Tool: `assign_device_to_site` - Server: API-Central (`secure-ssid/centralmcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp.md - Homepage: https://github.com/secure-ssid/centralmcp - Risk category: Write (Medium risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "assign_device_to_site", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why assign_device_to_site is rated Medium The tool modifies the configuration state of network infrastructure by changing site assignments. While this affects network operations and could impact service delivery if misused, it is reversible and does not delete data or execute arbitrary code. The blast radius is moderate—incorrect assignments could disrupt network topology or service access, but the action can be undone by reassigning the device. From the tool's own definition: "Assign or move a device to a site. This operation creates or modifies the association between a network device and a site location, which is reversible (the device can be moved to a different site or unassigned)." ## Use case AI agents use assign_device_to_site to create or update resources in API-Central, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your API-Central environment. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches API-Central: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "assign_device_to_site": { "limits": [ { "counter": "assign_device_to_site_rate", "window": "minute", "max": 30, "scope": "grant" } ] } } } ``` ## Other tools on API-Central (589) - `aos8_execute_migration_rollback` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/aos8-execute-migration-rollback.md - `aos8_logout` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/aos8-logout.md - `apstra_delete_connectivity_template` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/apstra-delete-connectivity-template.md - `clear_alerts` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/clear-alerts.md - `clearpass_delete_endpoint` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/clearpass-delete-endpoint.md - `clearpass_delete_guest` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/clearpass-delete-guest.md - `delete_aaa_profile` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/delete-aaa-profile.md - `delete_auth_profile` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/delete-auth-profile.md - `delete_auth_server` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/delete-auth-server.md - `delete_authz_policy` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/delete-authz-policy.md - `delete_config_assignment` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/delete-config-assignment.md - `delete_device_groups` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/delete-device-groups.md - `delete_device_notes` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/delete-device-notes.md - `delete_glp_role_assignment` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/delete-glp-role-assignment.md - `delete_glp_scope_group` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/delete-glp-scope-group.md - `delete_glp_scope_group_scopes` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/delete-glp-scope-group-scopes.md - `delete_gw_policy` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/delete-gw-policy.md - `delete_mac_registration` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/delete-mac-registration.md - `delete_mpsk_registration` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/delete-mpsk-registration.md - `delete_network_profile` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/delete-network-profile.md - `delete_notification_rule` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/delete-notification-rule.md - `delete_overlay_ssid` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/delete-overlay-ssid.md - `delete_report` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/delete-report.md - `delete_report_run` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/delete-report-run.md - `delete_role` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/delete-role.md - `delete_role_acl` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/delete-role-acl.md - `delete_server_group` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/delete-server-group.md - `delete_site_collections_bulk` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/delete-site-collections-bulk.md - `delete_sites_bulk` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/delete-sites-bulk.md - `delete_static_tag` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp/delete-static-tag.md - …and 559 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/secure-ssid-centralmcp.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
