So far it's working good, but I really miss documentation on the Juniper
Website. It was more or less guesswork to get it going. And I'm missing
most of the traceoptions I have available on SRX1-3k.

You probably need to place the inside service-interface into the
routing-instance or somethings alike.
I don't see st0.x interfaces on my MX like I do on the SRX.

Did you implement your scenario in the end?
