Fail2Ban protects you from one (or two) specific types of attacks:
someone trying to establish many connections to your PBX (e.g.: SIP
register, or SIP invite) in order to try to guess a username/password
combination the hard way (brute force). Or maybe just to consume your
resources.
But this is far from the only tthing to do to secure the PBX.
I suggest that you do some research, and come back to us with more
specific questions.
For starters:

Oh, and: did I mention you should not use Asterisk 1.2 for a new
install, but rather use 1.8?
