MCP server for managing pfSense firewalls through AI assistants
Обзор
MCP server for managing through AI assistants like Claude, ChatGPT, and Copilot. : pfrest package installed on your pfSense instance (provides the REST API). - for destructive operations (delete rules, delete mappings, restart services, apply changes): the tool returns a warning on first call and only executes when called again with confirm=true. - Like the pfSense WebGUI, add_* and delete_* store the change in the config but do not activate it. The tool response says so (applied: false, plus a pending note). Activate with apply_changes(subsystem, confirm=true) — which reloads that subsystem, including anything a human left staged in the WebGUI — or pass apply=true on the write itself when you explicitly want a one-shot change. Nothing the assistant does reaches the packet filter without one of those two explicit steps. - delete_dhcp_static_mapping takes the mapping's interface (its parent_id in list_dhcp_static_mappings) and mapping_id; a mapping is addressed by both. 1.

mcp-pfsense
MCP server for managing pfSense firewalls through AI assistants like Claude, ChatGPT, and Copilot.
Requires: pfrest package installed on your pfSense instance (provides the REST API).
Features
20 tools across 7 categories:
| Category | Tools | Description |
|---|---|---|
| System | get_system_status, get_interfaces |
Version, CPU, memory, uptime, temperature, network interfaces |
| Firewall | list_firewall_rules, add_firewall_rule, delete_firewall_rule, list_firewall_aliases |
Rule management with interface filtering, alias listing |
| DHCP | list_dhcp_leases, list_dhcp_static_mappings, add_dhcp_static_mapping, delete_dhcp_static_mapping |
Active leases, IP reservations |
| DNS | list_dns_host_overrides, add_dns_host_override, delete_dns_host_override |
Unbound DNS Resolver host overrides |
| Pending changes | get_pending_changes, apply_changes |
See what is staged per subsystem (firewall, dhcp, dns) and apply it |
| Monitoring | get_gateway_status, get_arp_table, list_services, get_firewall_logs |
Gateway health, connected devices, service status, recent raw firewall log entries |
| Services | restart_service |
Restart any pfSense service |
Safety
- Two-step confirmation for destructive operations (delete rules, delete mappings, restart services, apply changes): the tool returns a warning on first call and only executes when called again with
confirm=true. - Writes are staged, not live. Like the pfSense WebGUI,
add_*anddelete_*store the change in the config but do not activate it. The tool response says so (applied: false, plus apendingnote). Activate withapply_changes(subsystem, confirm=true)— which reloads that subsystem, including anything a human left staged in the WebGUI — or passapply=trueon the write itself when you explicitly want a one-shot change. Nothing the assistant does reaches the packet filter without one of those two explicit steps. delete_dhcp_static_mappingtakes the mapping’sinterface(itsparent_idinlist_dhcp_static_mappings) andmapping_id; a mapping is addressed by both.
