IPV6 - redistribution

Just did a lab asking for mutual redistribution of OSPFv3 and RIPng ... i used the following:

ipv6 router ospf 1
 redistribute rip RIP include-connected
ipv6 router rip RIP
 redistribute ospf 1 metric 1 include-connected

... verification seems to check out fine ... the solution seems to have a different approach:

ipv6 router ospf 1
 redistribute rip RIP
 redistribute connected
ipv6 router rip RIP
 redistribute ospf 1 metric 1
 redistribute connected metric 1

... is there any major difference in how these 2 methods perform? Is there a reason to use method 2 over method 1 (assuming you do want the connected routes also of course) ... i know both work, i'm just wondering if there is something extra special in the 2nd method i may need to know about.

thanks,
