 This extension allows serving sampling strategies following the Jaeger's remote sampling API. This extension can be configured to proxy requests to a backing remote sampling server, which could potentially be a Jaeger Collector down the pipeline, or a static JSON file from the local file system.
 
 By default, two listeners are made available:
-- `localhost:5778`, following the legacy remote sampling endpoint as defined by Jaeger
-- `localhost:14250`, following the gRPC remote sampling endpoint, also defined by Jaeger
+- `0.0.0.0:5778`, following the legacy remote sampling endpoint as defined by Jaeger
+- `0.0.0.0:14250`, following the gRPC remote sampling endpoint, also defined by Jaeger
+
+The `component.UseLocalHostAsDefaultHost` feature gate changes this to localhost:9943. This will become the default in a future release.
+
 
 Note that the port `14250` will clash with the Jaeger Receiver. When both are used, it's recommended to change this extension to use another port.
