[j-nsp] PIM join Upstream Unknown

[Dan Evans]

That message typically means that the router doesn't know where to send
joins upstream. Your outputs suggest that connectivity exists, but I'd check
the following:

1. Verify that a unicast route to the RP exists.
2. Verify that it exists in the same routing table PIM is using (inet.0 or
inet.2)
3. Verify that the upstream router is a PIM neighbor.
