In OSPF (Open Shortest Path First), there are several key states during the formation of neighbor relationships. These include the Down, Init, Two-Way, ExStart, Exchange, Loading, and Full states. The transition through these states ensures that routers can establish and maintain adjacencies, exchange routing information, and build a synchronized link-state database. Each state serves a specific purpose in the OSPF neighbor discovery and database synchronization process.
OSPF is short form of open shortest path first. OSPF is based on linked state routing.

OSPF is a link-state routing protocol that helps Routers exchange IP routes. OSPF Adjacencies is the established "neighborship" between two OSPF routers in order to make the exchange of routes. In this case, Adjacency means the same as "peering", that the OSPF speakers (routers) are able to "talk" to each other.

To display all connected OSPFv2 routers, use the command show ip ospf neighbor in the router's command-line interface. This command provides a list of OSPF neighbors, including their state, router ID, and interface information. It helps in verifying OSPF adjacencies and troubleshooting OSPF connectivity issues.
