‘pfdhcplistener’, as its name says, listen for dhcp packets.
PacketFence starts a ‘pfdhcplistener’ daemon on each of the required network 
interfaces (in this case, management and inline).

‘pfdhcplistener’ is not acting as a DHCP server, dhcpd is. ‘pfdhcplistener’ is 
only listening to DHCP packet for MAC <-> IP association useful in PacketFence.

If you do a 
ps uafx | grep dhcpd
you should see the dhcpd daemon running with only eth0 as listening interface.

Cheers!
dw.
