nat_quick_fix_dmz

THE RISK

High Risk

This tool applies NAT (Network Address Translation) configuration changes to a DMZ (demilitarized zone) on an OPNSense firewall. Modifying NAT rules and DMZ configuration triggers external network operations that alter firewall behavior and network traffic routing. This falls under Execute due to triggering external operations on critical network infrastructure.

From the tool's definition 'Quick fix for DMZ NAT issue with minimal configuration' - applies NAT configuration changes to firewall DMZ settings

HOW TO CONTROL NAT_QUICK_FIX_DMZ

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and OPNSense MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for nat_quick_fix_dmz:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "nat_quick_fix_dmz": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "nat_quick_fix_dmz_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

nat_quick_fix_dmz stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Create a free account and register OPNSense MCP Server — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
