So, I think that, the config is working just fine, but there is no
statement to stop it from using ports above 61000. Hence the 63xxx port
number that you see. If you want it to avoid the ports above 6100 you
need to add a statement to that effect. You can have a number of
statements, they are processed in order. So another
outgoing-port-avoid: 61000-65535 . That would stop the port number above
61000 from getting picked. Or start with outgoing-port-avoid: 0-65535
and then permit selectively.
