get_product_ports
AI agents call get_product_ports to retrieve information from Veeam Ports without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

It has no side effects, cannot modify data, and does not execute commands or external operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only retrieve information it should not see, not cause infrastructure damage or financial harm.
