# Drop filter.
#
# Drops everything that gets to this filter.
#
# This is best used in combination with conditionals, for example:
#
#     filter {
#       if [loglevel] == "debug" { 
#         drop { } 
#       }
#     }
#
# The above will only pass events to the drop filter if the loglevel field is
# "debug". This will cause all events matching to be dropped.
