A port range is represented in the interface by min_port
and max_port for both a rule and a back end server. A rule's
port range and a back end server's port range can be different.
If a rule's range is n-N, and a back end server's range is
m-m (meaning only 1 single port), it is called port collapsing
in the current design doc. 0 is an invalid port for both
min_port and max_port in the current ioctl interface to the
kernel.
