Without config snapshots of the VRF, the import policy and the export policy, 
it is difficult to say why you see this behavior, I have some ideas but I don't 
want to guess.  Can you provide config snapshots?  I don't want to assume and 
head down some road that may not be relevant.

Subject: [j-nsp] L3VPN advertises the directly connected subnet - why?

Hi,

I'm doing some testing with simple plain L3VPNs and ran into some weird 
behaviour. At least I think it's weird. Perhaps somebody can enlighten me.

A CE router is exchanging routes with the PE through BGP. These routes are 
correctly advertised 'over' the L3VPN towards other CE routers.
However the directly connected subnet between the CE and PE is also advertised 
to the other CE routers. 

Why is this? It was my understanding that only the routes learned from the BGP 
advertisement from the CE router would be advertised to the other CE routers.

What's the reasoning behind this behaviour?
Can I alter this behaviour? And if yes, is it safe to do so?

Weirdly enough I've found a Juniper KB [1] which seems to document the exact 
opposite behaviour of what I'm experiencing. This KB describes a case where the 
directly connected subnet is not advertised over the L3VPN and how to 'fix' 
this.

Thanks for any clues.
Kind regards,
-Jeroen-

PS: JunOS version on the PE routers is 9.3R2.8
