Click on the arrows to vote for the correct answer
A. B. C. D.Correct Answer - C.
By default, AWS X-Ray Daemon listens for traffic on UDP port 2000
This port can be changed while configuring daemon with CLI option as - bind “Different port number”.
Option A is incorrect as the AWS X-Ray Daemon Listening port can be changed for all environments.
Option B is incorrect as Listening Ports can be changed for running Daemons Locally as well.
Option D is incorrect as Daemons Listening port is UDP 2000, but it can be changed using - bind command.
For more information on AWS X-Ray Daemon Port configuration, refer to the following URL-
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/xray/latest/devguide/xray-daemon.htmlThe correct statement for the AWS X-Ray Daemon listening port is:
C. AWS X-Ray Daemon Listening Port can be changed using --bind command with CLI.
The AWS X-Ray daemon is a software application that is responsible for sending trace data from applications to the X-Ray service. The daemon listens on a specific port for incoming trace data.
Here is an explanation of the other answer options:
A. AWS X-Ray Daemon Listening Port can be changed only for the Linux environment. This statement is incorrect because the AWS X-Ray daemon can be run on multiple operating systems, not just Linux.
B. AWS X-Ray Daemon Listening Port cannot be changed while running the daemon locally. This statement is incorrect because the AWS X-Ray daemon can be configured while it is running. However, some changes may require the daemon to be restarted for the new configuration to take effect.
D. AWS X-Ray Daemon Listening Port is default as 2000 & cannot be changed. This statement is incorrect because the default listening port for the AWS X-Ray daemon is 2000, but it can be changed using the "--bind" command with the CLI.
In summary, the correct statement is that the AWS X-Ray Daemon Listening Port can be changed using the "--bind" command with the CLI.
