This is a snippet from "Deploying MBGP Multicast VPNs":
*At the time of this writing, Junos OS does not support RPT-SPT mode if the CSources* *or C-Receivers are locally connected to the PEs. It is mandatory to have a* *CE between a PE and a host. This limitation is specific of RPT-SPT, it does not affect* *the default SPT-only mode.* The book is from May 2011, so I assume things must have changed. Otherwise what I have should not work at all. I guess I'll wait for JTAC to get back to me.
