## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "setup_sdn",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why setup_sdn is rated High

Setting up SDN (Software-Defined Networking) infrastructure involves provisioning and configuring network components, which constitutes executing an external operation with significant environmental impact. It is not merely reading or writing data, but actively configuring network infrastructure. While not inherently destructive or financial, misconfiguration or misuse could disrupt the entire range network topology.

From the tool's own definition: "'Setup SDN infrastructure' - configuring Software-Defined Networking infrastructure is an operational action that triggers external configuration and network topology changes in the cyber range environment"

## Use case

AI agents invoke setup_sdn to trigger actions in Ludus FastMCP. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Ludus FastMCP:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "setup_sdn": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "setup_sdn_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
