I'm not sure about that.  "ephemeral port" is not a defined term.  I assume
they mean the private (a.k.a. "dynamic") port range.  This is defined in an
RFC and by the IANA
(<https://www.iana.org/assignments/service-names-port-numbers/service-names-port-numbers.xhtml>):

Port numbers are assigned in various ways, based on three ranges: System
Ports (0-1023), User Ports (1024-49151), and the Dynamic and/or Private
Ports (49152-65535); the difference uses of these ranges is described in
[RFC6335].
