Tools it offers

36 tools, as the server itself reported during our check on Oct 31, 2026.

• get_network_entity_infoRetrieves WHOIS, GeoIP and DNS information for a public IP address or hostname. A hostname is resolved to an IP for the GeoIP lookup (`resolved_ip`, when resolution succeeds); an IP gets a reverse DNS lookup (`hostname`,
• arp_lookupPerforms an ARP lookup to find the MAC address for a given Local IP address. A suitable network interface is automatically selected. The list of all suitable interfaces found is also returned.
• pingPing a target host from the Netmon server. Wraps POST /api/getPingInfo/{target} (permission: tools). The probe runs ON the netmon server, not on the mcpmond host — so reachability reflects what netmon can see, which is w
• tracerouteTraceroute to a target from the Netmon server. Wraps POST /api/getTracerouteInfo/{target} (permission: tools). The probe runs ON the netmon server — hops reflect the path FROM netmon TO the target, not from wherever mcpm
• port_mapNmap port scan against a single host from the Netmon server. Wraps POST /api/getPortscanInfo (permission: tools). Server runs `nmap -oX - -p <ports> --open <ip>` and returns the parsed result. The probe originates from n
• search_ipFind every mention of a specific IP across Netmon's log and telemetry streams: syslog, Windows eventlog, Suricata EVE, aggregated NetFlow, and ARP. Returns one bucket per stream with {total, samples}. Streams that 4xx (e
• syslog_searchSearch syslog messages from network devices. Wraps GET /api/syslog/list (permission: logs); tag-scoped server-side. Filters (all optional): device_id, severity (name or int 0-7), facility (int 0-23), source (exact host/I
• eventlog_searchSearch Windows Event Log entries ingested from Netmon agents. Wraps GET /api/eventlog/list (permission: logs); tag-scoped server-side. Severity is the raw Windows EventRecord.Level: 'logalways'=0 (what Security-channel a
• eve_searchSearch Suricata EVE-format IDS events. Wraps GET /api/eve/list (permission: logs); tag-scoped server-side. Severity is Suricata-native: 1=high, 2=medium, 3=low/info — a 3-point scale, NOT syslog's 0-7. Takes names or int
• eve_getFetch a single Suricata EVE event by id, decoded server-side. Wraps GET /api/eve/get/{id} (requires permission: logs). Returns an envelope: summary (signature/category/action/gid:sid:rev/severity/app_proto), endpoints, a
• log_severity_summaryCount log events grouped by severity over a time window. One tool, three backends — pass `stream` to pick which. stream='syslog' → wraps /api/syslog/sevSum (severity 0-7, syslog scheme) stream='eventlog' → wraps /api/eve
• syslog_facetsTop-N value counts for ONE syslog field over a window — 'what are the top actions/reasons on this FortiGate in the last 2 hours' in a single call, instead of pulling rows and counting them yourself. Wraps GET /api/syslog
• netflow_searchSearch the FULL NetFlow history: the raw flow table (the last ~15 minutes) unioned with the aggregated rollup (4 weeks of history), windowed and pro-rated server-side. Wraps GET /api/aggnetflow/list (permission: vne). Fo
• netflow_raw_searchSearch raw NetFlow records (per-flow, not aggregated). Wraps GET /api/netflow/list (permission: vne). HORIZON — read this before choosing a window: the raw table holds only about 15 MINUTES. cleanup_netflow (pg_cron, eve
• flow_summarySummarize one host's network conversations: top peers, top ports, and a client-vs-service-side split, each with a residual "other" bucket plus overall totals. Wraps GET /api/aggnetflow/summary (permission: vne). Use this
• device_listList monitored devices. Wraps GET /api/devices (permission: devices); user's tag-scope is enforced server-side. Filters (all optional, combinable): - tag: tag slug, e.g. "snmp-up" or "switches". Slug is the stable lowerc
• device_getFetch one device with its related state: tags, alerts, the ping / oid / interface / port / disk trackers configured on it, its SNMP walk trackers, and a netflow rollup. Wraps GET /api/device/{id} (permission: devices). *
• device_findFind devices matching a substring of label or ip_address. Convenience wrapper for GET /api/devices?search=<q>; equivalent to device_list({search: q}). Use device_list directly when you need tag/status filters or relation
• overwatch_summaryHigh-level network health snapshot for 'how's the network?' style questions. Wraps GET /api/devices?alerts=1&tags=1 (requires permission: devices) and aggregates in-tool: device count, active alert count (total + by seve
• snmp_testProbe a device for SNMP reachability using the Netmon snmptest binary. Wraps POST /api/testSnmp (requires permission: write_devices). BLOCKING — can run up to 60 seconds while the server waits for the target to respond.
• snmp_walk_lastFetch the most recent stored SNMP walk for a device (cached in tools_walks). Wraps GET /api/getLastWalk/{device} (permission: tools). Cheap single-row read. Always try this first when an SNMP walk is needed. Only fall ba
• snmp_walk_runTrigger a FRESH SNMP walk against a device. Wraps POST /api/getSNMPWalkInfo/{deviceId} (permission: tools). SLOW and SIDE-EFFECTING. Server-side this shells out to walktool with a 1200s (20 minute) timeout and writes the
• agent_servicesList Windows services on an agent-managed device — live read via the WMI tunnel. Wraps POST /api/getDeviceServices (permission: devices). Returns rows of {Name, State, DisplayName} as reported by Win32_Service. Use this
• agent_processesList running processes on an agent-managed device — live read via the agent tunnel. Wraps POST /api/getDeviceProcesses (permission: devices). Returns rows as reported by GETPS: (process id, name, parent, memory, etc. — e
• alerts_listList configured alert definitions across both axes of the rule engine. Modern alerts (table `alerts`, class-scoped: syslog_log / event_log / eve_log / device_down / storage) and legacy alerts (per-device tracker threshol
• alerts_historyAuthoritative 'what fired and when' stream — wraps the `alert_history` table (one row per incident, both legacy and modern) and `alert_outlet_log` (per-dispatch ledger keyed by history_id). Default mode: lists incidents
• maintenance_windows_listLists maintenance windows — the suppression schedules that gate alert dispatch. Use when a user asks 'why didn't this page me' or 'is this device under maintenance right now' — a quiet alert may be inside a window rather
• tags_listList tag definitions. The slug is the stable identifier used everywhere device-tag scoping is enforced (e.g. alert_routing_rules.tag_filters, device_list({tag: ...})). The display name is for humans. Wraps GET /api/tags.
• top_bandwidthTop NetFlow conversations over the last N minutes — the 'who's eating bandwidth right now?' question. Wraps GET /api/getTopBandwidth/{mins}, the same query that powers the dashboard live widget. Use this for short-window
• arp_tableLists hosts observed on the local LAN(s) via the ARP table — the 'what devices have we seen recently?' question. Wraps POST /api/getArpTable, which collapses arptable + _dns into one row per IP with hostname + monitored-
• interfaces_searchCross-device interface metadata listing — answers 'what interfaces are tracked across the fleet, named like X, on device Y?'. Wraps GET /api/interfaces/all, which returns logging-enabled interfaces across every device th
• device_metric_summaryDay / week / month / all-time summary stats for a single device-tracker, by metric type. Multi-backend: pass `metric` to pick which upstream endpoint to hit. metric='latency' → wraps POST /api/latency/stats (icmpingId).
• agent_disk_usagePath-scoped folder-tree disk usage report from a Netmon agent — the 'D: drive is at 95%, what's eating it?' question. Wraps POST /api/getFolderUsageFromPath which RPCs into the agent's GETFOLDERUSAGEPATH command and retu
• capture_listRead-only listing of packet captures. Wraps GET /api/captures. Operators see their own captures; admin (sa) sees all. The upstream endpoint returns the 200 most-recent rows ordered by id desc. Use this for 'is there a ca
• capture_getRead-only single-capture detail. Wraps GET /api/captures/{id}. If the capture is still active (status=starting|running) the upstream endpoint refreshes status from netmond's IPC before responding, so packets/bytes counte
• speedtest_historyRecent WAN speedtest results — answers 'is the internet healthy?'. Wraps GET /api/getSpeedTestHistory. Returns rows ordered by timestamp desc. Each row carries the upstream's SpeedtestLog shape — typically {id, timestamp
