Can RMI be hosted on ports above 32000?

I am new to RMI and I have a doubt regrading hosting the RMI server on a specific port(s).

Is it necessary that Java RMI server be hosted on ports between 1024-9000 or can it be hosted on any random port (say port 50000).

What potential problem may occur if it is hosted on such random ports (50000 or 60000) ?

I have checked the RMI specification but couldn't find any information on hosting on specific ports.

No.

or can it be hosted on any random port (say port 50000).

Yes. From RMI's point of view there is no difference between any port number 1 to 65535.

What potential problem may occur if it is hosted on such random ports (50000 or 60000) ?

None.
