!!!HELP

Im having an error when creating gateway for Kong, its just stays Unkown. The info below:  
kubectl get gateway -nkong  
NAME CLASS ADDRESS PROGRAMMED  
loka-gateway kong Unknown

My gatewayclass status is True:  
kubectl get gatewayclass  
NAME CONTROLLER ACCEPTED  
kong [kong.io/gateway-controller](http://kong.io/gateway-controller) True

The gateway is driving me crazy because I didn’t know what happen to gateway to stayed Unknown. In the log of KIC pod, there is no error, I only find this log that seems weird: No configuration change; resource status update not necessary, skipping {“v”: 1}  
Please help me, I use image kong/kubernetes-ingress-controller:3.5.3

@Long can you please provide more details on your specific goal and the steps you are using to deploy the gateway? If you aren’t aware of our developer site, I hope you can find a guide or resources that would help you with your goals.
