When I run dhclient it listens on the expected port 68. However, in
addition to that port it also listens on a high number random IPv4 port and
IPv6 port (even if I specify -4 as an option).
Reading through the source code would make me think this is related to
OMAPI somehow?
I tried this on Ubuntu Server 13.04 64-bit which came with dhclient version
4.2.4. I also downloaded, compiled, and tried the latest version
isc-dhclient-4.2.5-P1. I get the same result.
I believe this is a bug. Either it shouldn't be listening on these ports
or it should be documented what they are used for.
