Why ports outside the portrange are used in OBIEE 12.2.1.1

During installation we provided a port range (e.g. 9900-9999) for OBIEE.
After installation it seems that processes use ports outside this range.

tcp 8 0 172.24.5.99:9524 172.24.5.99:9902 CLOSE_WAIT 59312/nqsserver
tcp 8 0 172.24.5.99:9572 172.24.5.99:9902 CLOSE_WAIT 59312/nqsserver
tcp 8 0 172.24.5.99:9512 172.24.5.99:9902 CLOSE_WAIT 59312/nqsserver
tcp 8 0 172.24.5.99:9550 172.24.5.99:9902 CLOSE_WAIT 59312/nqsserver
tcp 8 0 172.24.5.99:9541 172.24.5.99:9902 CLOSE_WAIT 59312/nqsserver
tcp 8 0 172.24.5.99:9554 172.24.5.99:9902 CLOSE_WAIT 59312/nqsserver

As you can see here, process nqserver (running on port 9902) holds several ports locked starting from 9512. We need these ports for another installation.

So the question is: can we configure that ALL OBIEE ports fit into the range 9900-9999?

    Did the installation do something different that what it showed you on the summary screen (you can/could have saved that summary)?  If so, I'd report that to Oracle.
