as root:
To check fail2ban status:
fail2ban-client status
To check fail2ban status of specific “jail” (sshd here):
fail2ban-client status sshd
To unban a specific IP (alternatively you can just wait 24 hours and they will automatically unban)
fail2ban-client set sshd unbanip 0.0.0.0
(insert IP address to unban instead of 0.0.0.0)
