VMware vRealize Network Insight MCP connector
Updated
VMware vRealize Network Insight is VMware's analytics platform for monitoring, troubleshooting, and optimizing software-defined data center networks. The VMware vRealize Network Insight MCP connector allows AI agents to manage authentication tokens and configure data sources such as switches and network devices across an environment. It also supports enabling, disabling, and updating device integrations, including SNMP configurations, to maintain accurate network visibility and analytics.
Authentication type
- API Key - Requires a static API key to be configured before the agent can connect to the service.
Uses
Use the VMware vRealize Network Insight MCP connector to perform the following actions:
- Manage authentication tokens for secure access to VMware vRealize Network Insight
- Onboard Arista switches to extend network visibility and analytics
- Track Brocade fabric health through configured switch data sources
- Secure network perimeters by managing Checkpoint firewall data sources
- Monitor Cisco switch inventory and connectivity across the data center
- Enable or disable data sources without losing existing configurations
- Update SNMP settings to keep device polling accurate and current
- Audit data source configurations across multiple network hardware vendors
Example prompts
Use the following example prompts to invoke VMware vRealize Network Insight MCP connector tools from your AI assistant or Boomi Connect workflow:
Show me all Cisco switch data sources connected to VMware vRealize Network Insight.Create a new auth token for VMware vRealize Network Insight.Disable the Arista switch data source named core-switch-01.List all Brocade switch data sources currently configured.Update the SNMP configuration for our Arista switch data source.Add a new Checkpoint firewall data source to VMware vRealize Network Insight.Delete the auth token we created last week.Show details for the Brocade switch data source in the east data center.Enable the Checkpoint firewall data source that was recently disabled.What Cisco switch data sources are currently active in our network?
