Looking for some qsfp+ switch. The more qsfp+ the better. At least 6 is needed.
Someone said 7050QX-32S but that has atom with a bug, right? I'd like to avoid that. Chances of that failing are statistically higher.
Was looking at 7750 instead but they're both are quite dated right so no new fw?
Then the most important thing is what about licensing? icx and arista seem to be okay. What if I go mellanox? Or dell? Or cisco? Would that break my mind?
I would love the cheapest thing of course but it has to be reliable. And I'm still bad with screamers so the quieter it is the better. I don't need fanless because lol, they probably don't exist for such high speed devices. Arista seems to be good on that aspect too.
I'm open to suggestions, please help me navigate this crazy world of switches.
