Show ip route comment tell us about all directly connected routers and possible all path
To the destination. We see that our all route will exit the routing table.
Ciscorouter1#sh ip ospf neighbor

Neighbor ID     Pri   State           Dead Time     Address         Interface
192.168.1.2       1   FULL/BDR        00:00:37         192.168.1.2     FastEthernet0/0


Shown in the output we see that 192.168.1.2 is BDR state bcz Cisco Router have highest loopback interface and highest loopback interface also be win to DR election process.
