How do I install the librenms mcp server?

Use a recorded configuration for your client, replace example credential values and paths, and verify the documented runtime. Restart or reconnect the client, then inspect the available tools.

What credentials does it need?

It reads `LIBRENMS_URL`, `LIBRENMS_TOKEN`, `SENTRY_DSN`, `MCP_HTTP_HOST`, `MCP_HTTP_BEARER_TOKEN` from the environment. Store these in your client's env block or a secrets manager — never commit them to a repository — and grant the narrowest scope that still covers your use case.

The short version

LibreNMS MCP Server is a Python-based Model Context Protocol (MCP) server designed to provide advanced, programmable access to LibreNMS network monitoring data and management features. It exposes a modern API for querying, automating, and integrating LibreNMS resources such as devices, ports, alerts, inventory, locations, logs, and more. The server supports both read and write operations, robust security features, and is suitable for integration with automation tools, dashboards, and custom network management workflows.
