Appears to only be on MX, as of today, although I might expect it to be at least be in QFX10K configuration.  Potentially not yet supported due to lack of testing time.  See here:

Pathfinder => Feature Explorer is how to look for this sort of stuff.

I’d rather be lucky than good, as I know I am not good
I don’t make the news, I just report it

    I'm trying to figure out how to load balance the DF election in a 
    production network. From the documentation it's clear that the EVPN type 
    4 is used. My scenario is:
    
    - I have several QFX5K acting as VXLAN L2 GW
    - I'm using multicast mode ingress node replication
    - I have a lot of CE's in a multihoming scenario
    
    
    In this case I'm not finding how to control the DF/BDF election on QFX. 
    On MX you can configure designated-forwarder-preference-least to achieve 
    this.
    
    
    Any help is appreciated.
