Packet Tracer MCP

Servidor Model Context Protocol para controlar Cisco Packet Tracer 9.0 desde fuera. Una extensión propia se cuelga del editor de PT, abre un bridge HTTP local y desde ahí el servidor MCP llama a la API IPC nativa de PT para crear topologías, configurar routers, lanzar simulaciones, etc.

People connecting automation tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in TypeScript.

01 · Install Packet Tracer MCP

Claude Code

claude mcp add jcorderop02-packet-tracer-mcp -- npx -y packet-tracer-mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "jcorderop02-packet-tracer-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "packet-tracer-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

Using another client? Same JSON, different key
