Update dynamic port range in Auditor 10.8 requirements

[pavelshabanov2025]

Summary

• Corrected dynamic TCP port range from 1024-65535 to 49152-65535 in the Netwrix Auditor 10.8 requirements ports page
• Per Microsoft KB929851, Windows Vista / Server 2008 and later use 49152–65535 as the default dynamic port range (IANA compliant); the old range 1024–65535 was never a standard Microsoft range

Editorial Review

docs/auditor/10.8/requirements/ports.md

• Clarity — Line 88: The range "Dynamic: 49152 -65535" has an inconsistent space before the hyphen but not after. Suggested fix: use either "Dynamic: 49152-65535" (no spaces) or "Dynamic: 49152 - 65535" (spaces on both sides) so the en-dash/hyphen formatting reads as a range rather than a negative number prefix.
• Completeness — Line 88: The dynamic range was narrowed from 1024-65535 to 49152-65535, but the surrounding prose still says "one dynamic port will be opened automatically" (line 17). Readers comparing the table to the prose may be confused about whether one port or the full ephemeral range needs to be opened. Suggested fix: confirm the prose on line 17 still matches the new range, and consider noting that 49152-65535 is the standard Windows ephemeral port range used by RPC dynamic endpoints.

Skipped (needs manual review)	Reason
docs/auditor/10.8/requirements/ports.md:17 — Netwrix.OxfordComma	False positive. The phrase 'For outbound rules, create or enable predefined Windows Firewall rules.' contains a prepositional phrase ('For outbound rules') followed by a compound verb ('create or enable') with only two items. Adding an Oxford comma would be grammatically incorrect.
docs/auditor/10.8/requirements/ports.md:9 — Dale: passive-voice	'requires some ports to be opened' — active rewrites ('requires open ports' / 'requires you to open ports') subtly change meaning or agent; left as-is to preserve author intent
docs/auditor/10.8/requirements/ports.md:78 — Dale: passive-voice	'where Netwrix Auditor client is installed (source)' — the parenthetical '(source)' depends on this phrasing for the table-reading guidance; rewriting risks losing the source/target framing
