According to RFC 6335,

> For any assignment request that includes a System Port, the assignment request MUST explain why a port number in the User Ports or Dynamic Ports ranges is unsuitable, and a reference to a stable protocol specification document MUST be provided.

Systems ports are those below 1024. I can't see any good technical
reason why NTS requires a system port rather than a user port and
don't think the above requirement can be satisfied.
