How to Enable WebSocket request in AWS Elastic Beanstalk deployed Java web application

First of all, I'm new to socket programming and AWS beanstalk. AS per my initial investigation I have founded AWS Elastic Beanstalk(EB) not support WebSocket. So I need to do a workaround on EB to enable that. I have developed a java application with one WebSocket request for notification. Its working fine in local machines when I deployed to AWS EB the WebSocket request-response 501 status code. I just investigate this issue I found we need to work around for enabling WebSocket request in EB. but I have no more idea how it does. I'm stuck in This situation. I Already have Load Balancer And security certificate.that are enabled on my EB. How can I enable WebSocket request without fail existing conditions?

I found One solution But I have doubt Where it put the configuration file described in this link Solution

I don't know about the java application you are running, but I know about how to setup your Elastic Load Balancer to work with websockets.

First of all, websockets doesn't work through CloudFront so you need to setup a separate domain (i.e. websockets.domain.com) that points directly to your load balancer, an A record alias.

Second, setup a new listener to your Elastic Load Balancer to use TCP and SSL. Generate a certificate through ACM.

enter image description here

Last, change your websocket client to use your new domain and port.
