Delete an underlay SSID and its scope-map.
AI agents call delete_underlay_ssid to permanently remove resources in API-Central — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
This tool permanently deletes network SSIDs and associated scope-map configurations. Such deletions cannot be undone and would disrupt network operations for all users connected to that SSID. This is a destructive operation with significant blast radius in a production network environment.
From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'delete' and description states 'Delete an underlay SSID and its scope-map' — irreversible removal of network configuration.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Delete an underlay SSID and its scope-map. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the API-Central MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the API-Central MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for delete_underlay_ssid: 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 API-Central. Nothing to install.
delete_underlay_ssid 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 delete_underlay_ssid 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 delete_underlay_ssid. 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.
delete_underlay_ssid is provided by the API-Central MCP server (secure-ssid/centralmcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
