UDP port listening

Description

I recently noticed that rocket chat node process opens periodically some random high UDP port for listening. Why It’s doing such things? It’s normal behavior?

for example is something like this:
tcp 0.0.0.0:3000 0.0.0.0:* 1431/node
udp 0.0.0.0:48618 0.0.0.0:* 1431/node

and this port will close after short period of time, and some time later node again open udp socket with random port.
