Much appreciated reply.

My understanding is EVPN-VXLAN uses anycast on all spines. All spines would 
have the same IP address (that is the gateway IP). Considering the limitations 
of the EX4600 you pointed out (which I assume is due to the Broadcom chipset), 
means in a case of mixing EX4600 with QFX5110, then the routing between VXLAN 
could only occur on the spines (assuming a QFX5110 or similar model supporting 
this) which effectively means traffic would trombone back and forth from the 
leaves to the spines rather than remain local to the switch even if the servers 
are on neighboring physical ports on the EX4600 leaves.

Am I making right assumptions?

I.
