[Snort-users] Emergency Ports

What is "Emergency Ports" found in stream4_reassemble and when/how are
they used?
The "emergency ports" seem to be the default portlist, containing
other ports than the ones I have specified with the "reassemble ports"
directive...

Example:

Stream4_reassemble config:
    Server reassembly: ACTIVE
    Client reassembly: ACTIVE
    Reassembler alerts: ACTIVE
    Zero out flushed packets: INACTIVE
    Flush stream on alert: INACTIVE
    flush_data_diff_size: 500
    Reassembler Packet Preferance : Favor Old
    Packet Sequence Overlap Limit: -1
    Flush behavior: random
    Flush base: 512
    Flush seed: 1137077499
    Flush range: 1213
    Ports: 20 21 23 25 53 80 110 111 143 513 1433 1521 3306 5432 6666 6667 8080
    Emergency Ports: 21 23 25 42 53 80 110 111 135 136 137 139 143 445 513 1433
