Hi Rugvedi,

Regarding - "#29", I had a chat with Arnab and ManiT on Friday and I also did further analysis. Based on the findings so far we can use one of the below show commands to fetch certificate validity date-time.

• show control local-properties certificate-not-valid-after
• show certificate validity

However, when we try to calculate the time difference in seconds in python it does not match exactly with the "timeRemainingForExpiration" value that is returned by API. But, we can still use the value calculated in python as approximate value.

Regarding this issue, I think since "timeRemainingForExpiration" is related to the controller certificate it should be present in all the versions unless there is no certificate installed in a particular controller device. So, we may just have to add an exception-handling code to take care of this scenario.

Since we are checking the Expiration dates for all the controllers in the network. It wont be possible to execute show commands on them in cases where the certificate is not installed.

No, it won’t be needed. Simple: if user has ! In their password, that user won’t work in the first place
