hybrid server
The server is able to function both locally and remotely, depending on the configuration or use case.
ONOS MCP Server
Overview
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementation that provides network control and management capabilities through the ONOS SDN controller. This server enables AI assistants to access ONOS network management, OpenFlow device control, and comprehensive analytics through a structured API interface. The server is ideal for educational environments, network operations, SDN research, and AI-assisted network management.
Features

The server provides access to ONOS REST API endpoints, including:
- Network devices, links, and hosts
- Topology information
- Flow rules and intents
- Applications and services
- Statistics and metrics
- System and cluster health
Analytics Tools
- Network Summary: Get a comprehensive overview of devices, links, hosts, and clusters with detailed device information
- Network Analytics: Analyze performance metrics, traffic patterns, and utilization statistics
- System Health: Monitor memory usage, cluster status, and component health
- Application Management: Install, activate, deactivate, and uninstall ONOS applications
- Flow Configuration: Create and manage flow rules and intents
