Description

Background:
To be able to bind squid for reverse proxy to port under 1024 the net.inet.ip.portrange.reservedhigh need to be changed.

Problem:
The net.inet.ip.portrange.reservedhigh is currently not access able through the system tunable GUI.
The squid package states it shall be possible to chnage portrange.reservedhigh in its "error/help-box".
A lot of user have mixed up .portrange.first and portrange.reservedhigh which caused this confused thread:
https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=87280.0
This blogpost also clarify the problem: http://blog.pragbits.com/it/2015/01/31/pfsense-squid-reverse-proxy-issue/

Preferred solution:
Add net.inet.ip.portrange.reservedhigh to system tunable GUI.

Alternative solution:
Change the error/help text in squid3 package.
(Then I guess this issues shall be moved.)
