This line won't work on vpp 20.01. I know it's setting from 2017 but as amateur devops it's hard to find any mature setting enable my little home server working as a router using vpp&dpdk. Can you give me some guide ?

Im having the same problem, would love an explanation.

should be set arp proxy [del] table-ID <table-ID> start <start-address> end <end-addres> now.

So in this case set arp proxy start 172.16.1.1 end 172.16.1.2 (uses default table-id of 0 in that case)
