Dave Marion commented on ACCUMULO-4331:
---------------------------------------

So, would this be for the range syntax, or the syntax in all cases? [9997,9997], [0,0], [9997,9999)

> There was some discussion in ACCUMULO-4328 about ports, so I decided to track down how the client ports are configured and allocated. Issues raised in the discussion were:
>  1. The port search feature was not well understood
>  2. Ephemeral port allocation makes it hard to lock servers down (e.g. iptables)
> Looking through the code I found the following properties allocate a port number based on conf.getPort(). This returns the port number based on the property and supports either a single value or zero. Then, in the server component (monitor, tracer, gc, etc) this value is used when creating a ServerSocket. If the port is already in use, the process will fail.
> {noformat}
> monitor.port.log4j
> trace.port.client
> gc.port.client
> monitor.port.client
> {noformat}
> The following properties use TServerUtils.startServer which uses the value in the property to start the TServer. If the value is zero, then it picks a random port between 1024 and 65535. If tserver.port.search is enabled, then it will try a thousand times to bind to a random port.
> {noformat}
> tserver.port.client
> master.port.client
> master.replication.coordinator.port
> replication.receipt.service.port
> {noformat}
> I'm proposing that we deprecate the tserver.port.search property and the value zero in the property value for the properties above. Instead, I think we should allow the user to specify a single value or a range (M-N).
