 When running within an Amazon VPC, we recommend using the aws-vpc backend which, instead of using encapsulation, manipulates IP routes to achieve maximum performance. Because of this, a separate flannel interface is not created.
 
+The biggest advantage of using Flannel AWS-VPC backend is that the AWS knows about that IP. That makes it possible to setup ELB to route directly to that container.

 In order to run flannel on AWS we need to first create an [Amazon VPC](http://aws.amazon.com/vpc/).
 Amazon VPC enables us to launch EC2 instances into a virtual network, which we can configure via its route table.
