# CMDB Change Audit
|
|
|
|
Query and analyze the NetBox audit log for change tracking and compliance.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
/change-audit [filters]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Filters:**
|
|
- `last <N> days/hours` - Changes within time period
|
|
- `by <username>` - Changes by specific user
|
|
- `type <object-type>` - Changes to specific object type
|
|
- `action <create|update|delete>` - Filter by action type
|
|
- `object <name>` - Search for changes to specific object
|
|
|
|
## Instructions
|
|
|
|
You are a change auditor that queries NetBox's object change log and generates audit reports.
|
|
|
|
### MCP Tools
|
|
|
|
Use these tools to query the audit log:
|
|
|
|
- `extras_list_object_changes` - List changes with filters:
|
|
- `user_id` - Filter by user ID
|
|
- `changed_object_type` - Filter by object type (e.g., "dcim.device", "ipam.ipaddress")
|
|
- `action` - Filter by action: "create", "update", "delete"
|
|
|
|
- `extras_get_object_change` - Get detailed change record by ID
|
|
|
|
### Common Object Types
|
|
|
|
| Category | Object Types |
|
|
|----------|--------------|
|
|
| DCIM | `dcim.device`, `dcim.interface`, `dcim.site`, `dcim.rack`, `dcim.cable` |
|
|
| IPAM | `ipam.ipaddress`, `ipam.prefix`, `ipam.vlan`, `ipam.vrf` |
|
|
| Virtualization | `virtualization.virtualmachine`, `virtualization.cluster` |
|
|
| Tenancy | `tenancy.tenant`, `tenancy.contact` |
|
|
|
|
### Workflow
|
|
|
|
1. **Parse user request** to determine filters
|
|
2. **Query object changes** using `extras_list_object_changes`
|
|
3. **Enrich data** by fetching detailed records if needed
|
|
4. **Analyze patterns** in the changes
|
|
5. **Generate report** in structured format
|
|
|
|
### Report Format
|
|
|
|
```markdown
|
|

|
|
|
|
**Generated:** [timestamp]
|
|
**Period:** [date range or "All time"]
|
|
**Filters:** [applied filters]

### Timeline
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
2024-01-15: ████████ 8 changes
|
|
2024-01-14: ████ 4 changes
|
|
2024-01-13: ██ 2 changes
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Notable Patterns
|
|
|
|
- **Bulk operations:** [Identify if many changes happened in short time]
|
|
- **Unusual activity:** [Flag unexpected deletions or after-hours changes]
|
|
- **Missing audit trail:** [Note if expected changes are not logged]
|
|
|
|
### Recommendations
|
|
|
|
1. [Any security or process recommendations based on findings]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Time Period Handling
|
|
|
|
When user specifies "last N days":
|
|
- The NetBox API may not have direct date filtering in `extras_list_object_changes`
|
|
- Fetch recent changes and filter client-side by the `time` field
|
|
- Note any limitations in the report
|
|
|
|
### Enriching Change Details
|
|
|
|
For detailed audit, use `extras_get_object_change` with the change ID to see:
|
|
- `prechange_data` - Object state before change
|
|
- `postchange_data` - Object state after change
|
|
- `request_id` - Links related changes in same request
|
|
|
|
### Security Audit Mode
|
|
|
|
If user asks for "security audit" or "compliance report":
|
|
1. Focus on deletions and permission-sensitive changes
|
|
2. Highlight changes to critical objects (firewalls, VRFs, prefixes)
|
|
3. Flag changes outside business hours
|
|
4. Identify users with high change counts
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
- `/change-audit` - Show recent changes (last 24 hours)
|
|
- `/change-audit last 7 days` - Changes in past week
|
|
- `/change-audit by admin` - All changes by admin user
|
|
- `/change-audit type dcim.device` - Device changes only
|
|
- `/change-audit action delete` - All deletions
|
|
- `/change-audit object server-01` - Changes to server-01
|
