## On Elastic Beanstalk

* **Note**\
  The daemon uses your environment's instance profile for permissions. For instructions about adding permissions to the Elastic Beanstalk instance profile, see [Giving the daemon permission to send data to X-Ray](https://github.com/kevinslin/aws-reference-notes/blob/main/services/aws_x_ray/xray-daemon.md#xray-daemon-permissions).

## On Amazon ECS

* **Note**\
  Flags `-t` and `-b` are required to specify a binding address to listen to the loopback of a multi-container environment.
