No. Each mvpn instance needs a unique p-group address, which results in a mt 
encap/decap for that mvpn's default tree. In a rosen7 with 3 pes, you have one 
outgoing and two incoming mdts at a minimum. If desired you can then have usage 
driven data mdts, but that increases tunnel count at the benefit of sparing Pes 
that have no interested receivers.

IIRC, we support something like 1023 mdts per TP. Not sure that we have the 
ability yet to scale with multiple tps.

        the routing instance - however if you are using MXs then it is built
        in already on the DPCs.  If Inclusive trees are used, then P2MP
        branches are built statically, but automatic trees can be built if
        using a Selective tree.
        

 
In the GRE approach, do we have the ability to aggregate multiple MVPNs into a 
single Inter-PE GRE tunnel?
