-5. Restart Fail2Ban
+Using DOCKER-USER chain ensures that the blocked IPs are processed in the correct order with Docker. See more in: https://docs.docker.com/network/iptables/
+
+5. Configure and restart the Fail2Ban service
+
+Make sure Fail2Ban is started after the Docker service by adding a partial override which appends this to the existing configuration.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+  sudo systemctl edit fail2ban
+
+Add the override and save the file.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+  [Unit]
+  After=docker.service
+
+Restart the Fail2Ban service.
 
 .. code-block:: bash
 
   sudo systemctl restart fail2ban
