I'm confused.
in the web-rules.xml file
the first rule is
<rule id="31100" level="0">
<decoded_as>web-accesslog</decoded_as>
<category>web-log</category>
<description>Access log messages grouped.</description>
</rule>
I from this inferred that level 0 is ignored for allerts but is
still matched against the incoming log.
