Re: [tor-relays] Is TOR using more than just OrPort and DirPort?



Is there any way to configure which range of ports Tor uses for outgoing relay traffic?

Tor will use many unblocked ports for outbound traffic I'm guessing.
I think that dd-wrt will open any port that Tor requests if you use port triggering.

I just started a relay (non-exit node, not running a client myself), on Windows, using the latest Vidalia Relay Bundle.  Looks like from the configuration, given that I'm running in relay mode, there should be only two ports used by Tor (OrPort and DirPort), right?  However, when I run "netstat -ano", I see that the Tor process is using up a lot more ports.

There are these connections, from 127.0.0.1 back to itself.  Some sort of internal process used by Tor?  Not as concerned about these, since these are internal.  But still curious.


But then I see connections like these:

These appear to be the actual Tor relay traffic (192.168.1.202 is my computer).  Why are these using ports in the 55000+ range, when I specified my OrPort to be a singular value (in my case, 9031)?  I would like to know the port ranges used by Tor for relay traffic, so I can use my dd-wrt to set the QoS by specifying these Tor port ranges.
