We are going Arista. For basic Layer 2 Ethernet switching, it's going to do the job, with Gigs of buffer memory.
The back-breaker for us was when Juniper decided to do silly things with the CLI in the EX4600 vs. what we'd been used to with the EX4550. Since it took them a year to tell me they'll make the EX4600 CLI as simple as the EX4550 one in 2019, I jumped ship. Fair point, the still-small buffers on the EX4600 didn't help either... Mark.
