Due to the methods of operation used by Telkom SA and SAIX I need to infrom my ISP of the addresses and ports used for the bridge lobbies so that these ports can be excluded from de-prioritisation (shaping as it is called), From my observations I see chat.zone.com:288-- (typically -- ranges from 40 to 50) Is chat.zone.com fixed as the name ?? Is there a specific range of ports that are used ?? Any info would be very welcome. Thanks
