Yes, my first post was vague and not clear, so I started over and tried to be more clear.

That's what happens when I am multi-tasking many tasks at once and just do a "quick post" without putting my full thoughts down in the post. My bad and sorry for the earlier confusion.

Your script is really great and a strong contribution.

Perhaps in the future we should add a flag each server can be identified if fail2ban is turned on?

What do you think? Is that an important metric to add, do you think?
