How to calculate expiration option for Imunify360 CLI tools?

Issue

There is a need to add IP to the firewall using the command line interface imunify360-agent to firewall lists.

Environment

• Imunify360
• Any supported OS

Solution

Value for --expiration should be entered in seconds since the epoch (UNIX time) as per documentation. It can be calculated from CLI, via other tools.

1. Get value for 10+ days from CLI:

$ date -d "+10 days" +"%s"
1667018241

2. Or get it from the https://www.epochconverter.com/ service:

Then, using the value received, add the IP to the firewall list on the server (in the example, it will be whitelisted until October 29)

# imunify360-agent whitelist ip add 1.2.33.44 --expiration 1667018241

# imunify360-agent whitelist ip list --by-ip 1.2.33.44
IP  TTL  COUNTRY  IMPORTED_FROM
1.2.33.44  863833  CN  None
