+*Many distributions already provide fail2ban packages, so better you'd install this built from your maintainers version of fail2ban, especially if you are not familiar with linux.*
+
+You don't need install fail2ban for the test attempts or to try some new functionality, so firstly read [How to test newer fail2ban version resp. use fail2ban standalone instance](How-to-test-newer-fail2ban-version-resp.-use-fail2ban-standalone-instance).
+
+Manual install/upgrade is very similar, just you have to do more steps to install it, like copy and enable service units, copy man-files etc pp.
+
+Firstly download fail2ban from [releases](https://github.com/fail2ban/fail2ban/releases) or from [source](https://github.com/fail2ban/fail2ban) (select branch 0.10, 0.11 or master and click "clone or download" button) and unpack it (or clone it with git) into some temporary directory (e. g. `/tmp/f2b`).
+
+In order to install it, you have to execute several of following commands as root (or sudoer), so you can start shell as root (e. g. `sudo -s`) or use `sudo` before corresponding command that expecting administrator permissions.
+
+If you already have fail2ban installed from your distribution:
+- backup your current configuration `/etc/fail2ban` and run-time database `/var/lib/fail2ban/fail2ban.sqlite3`
+- you can also store the dump of your current configuration to be able to compare it later:<br/>
+`fail2ban-client -d > /tmp/f2b-dump-of-prev-version.txt`
+- **stop and uninstall** obsolete version of fail2ban
+
+Then:
+
+- install prerequirements you need (see [README.md](https://github.com/fail2ban/fail2ban/blob/0.11/README.md));
+for example:
+  * for `python2`:<br/>
+    `apt install python-pyinotify python-systemd`
+  * for `python3`:<br/>
+    `apt install python3-pyinotify python3-systemd`
+- enter your (cloned) interim fail2ban directory:<br/>
+`cd /tmp/f2b`
+- if you want to use `python3` execute `./fail2ban-2to3` (and then use `python3` in command below)
+- now install it:<br/>
+`sudo python setup.py install --without-tests`
+- note that the system init/service script is not automatically installed, so you have to copy it and enable the service manually; for example with init.d-script see readme, to install systemd-unit file use:
+```
+sudo cp ./files/fail2ban.service /etc/systemd/system/fail2ban.service
+sudo systemctl enable fail2ban
+```
+
+Now we have to configure fail2ban (also see [Proper fail2ban configuration](Proper-fail2ban-configuration)):
+
+- copy your `.local` files from backup to `/etc/fail2ban` (or create new `jail.local` and set-up jails you need to enable).
+- take a look in your backup copy of `/etc/fail2ban/jail.conf` for includes made for your distribution:
+```ini
+[INCLUDES]
+before = paths-debian.conf
+```
+- copy this file and set the same line in new `jail.conf` or `jail.local` in `/etc/fail2ban`.
+- test it<br/>
+`sudo fail2ban-client --test`
+
+Now you can start fail2ban via service:
+```
+sudo service fail2ban start
+```
