+/** \brief IP table replace being
+
+    The use-case is that, for some unspecified reason, the control plane
+    has a very different set of entries it wants in the table than VPP
+    currently has. The CP would thus like to 'replace' VPP's current table
+    only by specifying what the new set of entries shall be, i.e. it is not
+    going to delete anything that already eixts.
+    the CP delcartes the start of this procedure with this begin_replace
+    API Call, and when it has populated all the entries it wants, it calls
+    the below end_replace API. From this point on it is of coursce free
+    to add and delete entries as usual.
+    The underlying mechanism by which VPP implements this replace is
+    purposefully left unspecified.
