Hi Chris,
Ignore that previous reply, I've been working with RHEL7 a lot recently :)
this is my C6 jail config for SSH - I hope it helps.
[ssh-iptables]
enabled = true
filter = sshd
action = iptables[name=SSH, port=ssh, protocol=tcp]
#remove this line below if you do not wish to receive email upon ban.
sendmail-whois[name=SSH, dest=root, sender=fail2ban@HOSTNAME]
logpath = /var/log/secure
maxretry = 10
findtime = 86400
