Can you please elaborate more?

XCP currently, be default, binds to 80 and 443. These are ports reserved
for http.

AFAIK, /etc/services is a good reference point to check what application
services own what ports.

If we were to choose, say port 1023 for XCP, where do we start with?
We will change the defaults in the application's default sections, but
wouldn't /etc/services be the best place to advertise that 1023 is owned
by service XCP ?
