The only way to check for availability is to actually try to use the ports. There are many reasons for a given port to not be available. Even if you did determine the available ports ahead of time, the availability may change before you actually try to use the ports. Either way, there is no point in trying to determine the availability ahead of time because you could just start the server as-is and let it fail if the desired port is not available at that time.
