[Freeswitch-users] udp port range

[Nyamul Hassan]

If you re-read Anthony's email, you would get a better idea of how FS gets
the ports.  There is probably a very good reason why the ports are chosen at
an earlier stage that they cannot be changed if binding fails.

In any case, if changing this affects CPS and stability, it's better not to
change at all!
