Make your own box and run Cumulus on it: https://cumulusnetworks.com/products/cumulus-linux/ IIRC it is a Debian derived distribution. We experimented with some 100Gbit Mellanox and Chelsio cards with Cumulus at Canonical and it was pretty straightforward. Refreshing to not use Cisco's CLI, which I have never found intuitive.
