Get all remote gateways in a blueprint
AI agents call get_remote_gw to retrieve information from Apstra MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves information about remote gateways within a datacenter network blueprint. It performs a read-only query with no side effects, no data modification, no code/command execution, and no destructive or financial impact. The verb 'Get' and the passive retrieval nature confirm this is a Read category tool.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_remote_gw' and description 'Get all remote gateways in a blueprint' indicate a query/retrieval operation with no modification or execution of external operations.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get all remote gateways in a blueprint. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Apstra MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Apstra MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_remote_gw: 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 Apstra MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_remote_gw is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_remote_gw 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 get_remote_gw. 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.
get_remote_gw is provided by the Apstra MCP Server MCP server (vignitin/apstra-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
