pam_rules.xml is set as:

  <rule id="5500" level="0" noalert="1">

    <decoded_as>pam</decoded_as>

    <description>Grouping of the pam_unix rules.</description>

  </rule>


  <rule id="5501" level="3">

    <if_sid>5500</if_sid>

    <match>session opened for user </match>

    <description>Login session opened.</description>

    <group>authentication_success,</group>

  </rule>


  <rule id="5502" level="3">

    <if_sid>5500</if_sid>

    <match>session closed for user </match>

    <description>Login session closed.</description>

  </rule>


  <rule id="5503" level="5">

    <if_sid>5500</if_sid>

    <match>authentication failure; logname=</match>

    <description>User login failed.</description>

    <group>authentication_failed,</group>

  </rule>

What should be modified for rule 5503 to be included in local_rules.xml?
