Under the LSPID column... the second from right byte (3-4th character) is the pseudonode ID... It is none zero for the DIS.
So
Level-1 has R5 as the DIS.
Level-2 has R6 as the DIS.
The * indicates the router that the command was run on. The Router hostname is also taken from the LSPID and in this case is.. R2...
