Named drops those ports as they can be used in reflection attacks.
Sane NAT developers avoid those ports for just that reason. The
full list is below.
static int
ns_client_dropport(in_port_t port) {
switch (port) {
case 7: /* echo */
case 13: /* daytime */
case 19: /* chargen */
case 37: /* time */
return (DROPPORT_REQUEST);
case 464: /* kpasswd */
return (DROPPORT_RESPONSE);
}
return (DROPPORT_NO);
}
