What dhcp_get_servers does on MikroTik MCP Server

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

Why dhcp_get_servers needs a policy

Even though dhcp_get_servers only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs — an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.
