OPNsense
Provides OPNsense API functionality through a Model Context Protocol (MCP) interface, enabling interactive network and system management.
About
The OPNsense server acts as a bridge, exposing the powerful OPNsense firewall and router API capabilities to MCP-compatible clients, such as AI-powered IDEs, via JSON-RPC over stdio. Instead of traditional HTTP REST endpoints, it offers a secure and efficient way to query and manage OPNsense data, including network information like ARP and DHCP tables, system status, firewall rules, and LLDP neighbors. This allows developers and network administrators to interact with their OPNsense instances using natural language queries within supported environments, streamlining diagnostics and operational tasks.
