Fabric MCP Server

On this page

The Fabric MCP server is hosted at https://mcp.equinix.com/fabric and can be used with MCP-compatible AI agents.

For general information on MCP server setup and configuration, see MCP Server Overview.

Private Beta

The Fabric MCP Server is currently in Private Beta. If you are interested in joining the Beta program, please email [email protected] or reach out to your Equinix account representative.

Tools​

The Fabric MCP server exposes the following MCP tools that allow AI assistants to interact with your Equinix Fabric resources. Each tool corresponds to a specific Fabric API endpoint.

important

We recommend enabling human confirmation for tool execution, especially for operations that create, update, or delete resources. This helps prevent unintended changes to your Fabric infrastructure.

Current Limitations

Delete functionality is not currently supported in the Fabric MCP Server. This includes deletion of connections, ports, and Cloud Routers.

Example Commands​

Once you have configured the Fabric MCP server in your AI agent, you can use natural language to interact with your Fabric resources. The following are examples of common queries:

Basic Queries​

• "Show me all active connections in the SV metro." – Searches for and displays all active connections in the Silicon Valley metro.

• "Which ports are currently over-utilized or have negative available bandwidth?" – Analyzes port utilization to identify capacity issues.

• "Summarize all my Fabric Cloud Routers." – Provides an overview of all Cloud Routers in your account.

• "Can you update the bandwidth for the connection named <connection_name>?" – Modifies the bandwidth allocation for a specific connection.

• "Can you ping this router-based connection?" – Executes a ping command to test connectivity through a Cloud Router connection.

Advanced Queries​

The MCP server can help with complex analysis and optimization tasks:

• "We're looking to rationalize our network footprint. Can you analyze our active and provisioned port, router, and connection utilization across all metros, identify underutilized resources, and suggest optimization strategies to reduce our monthly costs while maintaining performance? Also, can you suggest adding redundancy options to improve resiliency of our network?" – Performs comprehensive network analysis to identify cost optimization opportunities while maintaining or improving network resilience.

• "Find metros where we should establish redundant paths but currently don't have them." – Analyzes network topology to identify single points of failure across metros and recommends redundancy improvements.

• "Analyze our connection patterns and identify any single points of failure in our network topology." – Examines connection architecture to detect vulnerabilities and suggest architectural improvements.
