Register Server Port at IANA

[6543]

At the moment only Wikipedia has 8090, 8008 and 8448 listed.

If you look at the Service Name and Transport Protocol Port Number Registry it only shows

• 8446-8449 as Unassigned
• 8090 as opsmessaging
• 8008 as http-alt

The suggestion Would be to get 8448 or the whole range, depending on future needs ...

It would be good to catch this Port officially so others cant.
(Service names are assigned on a first-come, first-served process, as documented in [RFC6335].)

sorry I'm not sure if this is the right place or if it's a dublicate to #400 - but #400 do not mention the 8448 port ...

I'd actually rather get rid of 8448 altogether and use port 443 as the default. That's a bit of a difficult process though.

well after running my homeserver quite a while - i think 443 would be best - so I'll close this issue

to get the legacy things removed is another thing ...

[turt2live]

reopened because we should register it

[turt2live]

#1577 tracks using port 443 instead

[turt2live]

Registration request has been submitted

8448 is now registered for the foundation to use.
