We are attempting to configure pim sparse mode via the PA-7050 which is going to be used as a control point for various virtual routers on our juniper mx core. From what I can tell the pim is configured correctly, and the proper rp has been selected. multicast routes appear correct, however the traffic is still being dropped.
This is the counter which is being incremented:
flow_fpga_egress_exception_err 1027504 153 drop flow offload Packets dropped: receive egress exception error from offload processor
my multicast streams are being created using iperf
#iperf -u -c 239.2.33.4 --time 10000 -i 1v -T 32 -l 65B -b 80kb
And a receiver in the same routing instance is able to receive the stream, however not through the pa-7050.

If I remember correctly, these drops occur when either the multicast group is not configured for the ip range or the security policy is not in place where the destination address is flagged in the policy as multicast.
