Which type of load balancing is shown in the exhibit?
The configuration exhibit shows the use of 'load-balance per-packet' within a policy statement. This specifies the application of per-packet load balancing, where each packet can potentially take a different path to the destination. This is a method used to spread network traffic evenly across multiple paths, ensuring better utilization of bandwidth and resources.
In Junos OS, you enable per-flow load balancing by setting the load-balance per-packet action in the routing policy configuration. The naming may be counter-intuitive, because in Junos, per-packet load balancing is functionally equivalent to what other vendors may term per-flow load balancing. https://www.juniper.net/documentation/us/en/software/junos/sampling-forwarding-monitoring/topics/concept/policy-configuring-per-packet-load-balancing.html

As already explained, by configuring "per packet" it's in the end "per flow" because per packet load-balancing might break connections as packets might get out of order
