Using the Free version

ls -hl /var/www/html/wp-content/plugins/wp-fail2ban/filters.d/

root@example:~# ls -hl /var/www/html/wp-content/plugins/wp-fail2ban/filters.d/
total 12K
-rw-r--r-- 1 www-data www-data  413 May 28 16:30 wordpress-extra.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 www-data www-data 1.3K May 28 16:30 wordpress-hard.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 www-data www-data  884 May 28 16:30 wordpress-soft.conf

ls -hl /var/www/html/wp-content/plugins/wp-fail2ban-premium/filters.d/

total 12K
-rw-r--r-- 1 www-data www-data  413 May 28 16:30 wordpress-extra.conf
