I am trying to access the kong admin from outside my k8s cluster. When going to my URL I get:

Secure Connection Failed

Kong admin is listening on 8444 and I have added a nodeport service…

```
spec:
  containers:
  - env:
    - name: KONG_PROXY_LISTEN
      value: 0.0.0.0:8000, 0.0.0.0:8443 ssl http2
    - name: KONG_PORT_MAPS
      value: 80:8000, 443:8443
    - name: KONG_ADMIN_LISTEN
      value: 127.0.0.1:8444 ssl

```
