hi,
my guess would be, that with send/receive version 1 you send actually
RIPv1 packets. So no authentication etc. just plain old RIPv1.
With the command v2-broadcast you send RIPv2 packets to broadcast
instead of multicast inlcuding all those nice RIPv2 features like
authentication and VLSM etc.
somebody correct me if I am wrong.
