Nexus switch with vxlan bgp evpn that support symetric routing

[Mikkel2990]

Hi everyone, i run a rather big homelab for learning purpose and i always like to have the hardware to play with instead of virtulize it in software. 

I'm now looking to implement VXLAN with bgp evpn with the IRB symmetric model in my homelab, and therefor i'm looking for two Nexus switches that supports the features, and i'm having a bit of a hardtime with digging through the Nexus series to find a switch that support the features and also for a reasonable price. 

I hope someone can help me find 2x Nexus switches that supports the features. I can spend around 2000$ in total for both switches. 

Thanks.
