First, have you installed iptables, shorewall, and tcp-wrappers
installed?
Second, have you tried the failed grep expression, i.e., have
you tried
iptables -L INPUT | grep -q fail2ban-SSH
As to why this would fail, you need to ask on the fail2ban
mailing list since evidently this appears to be part of the
installation.
The iptables can be setup by anyone - RedHat simply provides
a default set of rules.
