Hi,
Yes, Cisco supports VPC (virtual port-channel) for LACP over multiple
switches.
We're using 2x10G VPC on our Ceph and Proxmox hosts with 2 Cisco Nexus
3064PQ (48 x 10G SFP+ & 4 x 40G).
These refs can be found for ~1000€ in refurb with lifetime warranty.
Happy users here :-)
Cheers,
Fabien

My idea is to add two stacked 10G ethernet switches to the setup, so
we can start using lacp bonded networking over two physical switches.
Looking around, we can get refurb Cisco Small Business 550X for
around 1300 euro. We also noticed that mikrotik and TP-Link have some
even nicer-priced 10G switches, but those all lack bonding. :-(
Therfore I'm asking here: anyone here with suggestions on what to
look at, for nice-priced 10G stackable switches..?
Just to note: stacking support does not necessarily also means MCLAG
(LACP over multiple switches). I believe the Cisco's do support it.
Sometimes stacking is nothing more than a management feature, i.e.
able to manage the switches as it was one switch. So be sure to check
if LACP over multiple chassis is supported.
