Hey All,  
I’m using the kong open-source (image: kong:3.2.2-alpine) ingress-controller and proxy in EKS (k8s version 1.22).

I can’t seem to configure TLS in order to make HTTPS request to the cluster.  
I’m using an AWS-NLB because I want the the gateway to be responsible for TLS termination.

I didn’t find any proper guide on how to add support to TLS communication between the client to the cluster, can someone please assist with this?

Thank you!
