Does fail2ban work against brute force distributed attacks?

I've noticed a few attacks that seem to be orchestrated from the same people but using different IPs.

It doesn't specifically target distributed attacks, but I'm not really sure how something like that could know whether incoming requests are part of a botnet or ligitimate logins.
