/**
 * @brief
 * The IP NULL DPO represents the rubbish bin for IP traffic. Without specifying an
 * action (i.e. send IMCP type X to sender) it is equivalent to using a drop DPO.
 * However, in contrast to the drop DPO any route that resovles via a NULL, is
 * considered to 'resolved' by FIB, i.e. a IP NULL is used when the control plane
 * is explicitly expressing the desire to drop packets. Drop DPOs are used
 * internally by FIB when resolution is not possible.
 *
 * Any replies to sender are rate limited.
