[j-nsp] pfe-x/x/x and pfh-a/a/a

[junos fordummies]

Hi Tom,

Did you manage to get an answer for this. I am also looking for an
explanation to interfaces that have been captured as part of a SNMP walk on
our MX.

Can anyone shed any light on what a pfe and pfh interface is ? Is there a
doc with all interface types that describe what these are ? I have searched
and couldn't find a satisfactory document.

Thanks

JFD
