+name: Data-Plane Objects
+maintainer: Neale Ranns <nranns@cisco.com>
+features:
+ - A DPO is a generic term (a.k.a abstract base class) for objects that
+ perform [a set of] actions on packets in the data-plane
+ - Concrete examples of DPO types are; adjacency, mpls-imposition, replication.
+ - DPOs are stacked/joined to form a processing graph that packets traverse
+ to describe the full set of actions a packet should experience.
+ - DPO graphs can be rooted at any point in the VLIB graph - notable examples
+ are L3 FIB lookup, ABF, L3XC.
