Hi,

Continuous, especially if small, port ranges make it difficult for a host to pick good random source ports. We have I-D related to this on the way.

Best regards,

I like this draft overall, but I would restrict this so that only contiguous
port ranges are permitted.  Non-contiguous subnet masks are difficult for many
people to understand (even today) and I expect there would be similar
confusion with non-contiguous port ranges.
