RP in PIMv1/V2
Hi. are there any differences between PIMv1 and PIMv2 from the point of supporting Auto-RP/BSR methods? I mean can I use either of two methods in both PIMv1 and PIMv2 networks? tnx.

Yes, there are various functional differences. I hope this answers your question.

I did not see this in the thread, but I a pretty certain BSR is not supported in PIMv1:
ISP2(config)#int lo0
ISP2(config-if)#ip pim ver
ISP2(config-if)#ip pim version 1
ISP2(config-if)#ip pim bsr-candidate lo0
Warning: PIMv2 not configured on Loopback0, BSR messages not originated
ISP2(config)#

The main change of PIMv2 was the introduction of BSR. If an lab question were to say something like “Configure PIM Sparse Mode using PIMv2 RP assignment” it means BSR.

If you have read the link provided by Hari, then you can see that BSR is only supported by PIMv2.
Good point by Brian. This type of question can be quite confusing.
Thanks
