I’m looking for relatively non expensive 10G switch to handle a convergent cluster fully redondant using BGP and vxlan. I had a look on mikrotik switches but they don’t have a stable MLAG yest and doesn’t seem to handle well a data network. Do anyone tested FS switches? What about a cumulus switch? Is there any brand I should look?
 
Juniper QFX 5100 would be my recommendation, if you only need VXLAN Bridging. They were announced as EOL not too long ago, so you will be able to find them on the second-hand market. If you're going new, then go with either the 5110 or 5120.
