  Modified:    sys/netinet  in.h in_pcb.c
  Log:
  Change the default local address range for IP from 1024 through 5000
  to 20000 through 30000.  These numbers are used for local IP port numbers
  when an explicit address is not specified.
  
  The values are sysctl modifiable under: net.inet.ip.port_{first|last}_auto
  
  These numbers do not overlap with any known server addresses, without going
  above 32768 which are "negative" on some other implementations.
  
  20000 through 30000 is 2.5 times larger than the old range, but some have
  suggested even that may not be enough... (gasp!)  Setting a low address
  of 10000 should be plenty.. :-)
