OSPF Load balancing

I have two routers connected point-to-point by two serial links. i want to load balance with OSPF so that i can run PBR and classify a certain type of traffic to use a single serial and another type to use another serial based on destination ip address. is this possible with OSPF, how can I configure that?

DUT_3825(config-if)#do sh ip cef 192.2.1.0

192.2.1.0/24

nexthop 165.148.120.2 Serial0/3/0

nexthop 165.148.121.2 Serial0/3/1

I am happy with the output for load balancing, cef uses load-sharing per packet?

because if it's not configured on the interface then it does not load balance. route map has been removed on global config mode and int g0/0.

You don't need any interface configuration. If CEF is running on your router, and you have equal cost routes, then it is load balancing. By default, CEF does load balancing on a per destination basis.

If you want per-packet load balancing, configure both serial interfaces with the following command...

ip load-sharing per-packet

Be sure to do it on both routers so that you get symmetric load balancing.

I hope this helps,
