ingress-controller.config.apisix.adminKey=<new key> --set
admin.credentials.admin=<new key>` to the `helm install` command.

+## Why does my Ingress resource not have an address?
+
+1. **Using the External address of LoadBalancer service.**
+
+You will need to get the apisix-gateway service an external IP assigned for it
to reflect on the Ingress's status.
+
+* While installing APISIX helm chart make sure to override gateway type with
`--set gateway.type=LoadBalancer`.
+
+* Also make sure to pass ingressPublishService while installing Ingress
controller with `--set
ingress-controller.config.ingressPublishService=<namespace/service-name>`. If
namespace is not specified then `default` namespace will be chosen.
+
+Note: External IP is allocated either by cloud provider or some other
controller like metallb(if you're using kind or minikube) so if you're
deploying Ingress controller on minikube or kind then make sure to install and
configure something like metallb with an address pool which can allocate
external IP for service of type LoadBalancer.
+
+2. **Using the address given explicitly by `ingress_status_address`**
+In case the gateway `service` is not of type LoadBalancer, this field should
be configured in the config-default.yaml used by the Ingress controller. This
field takes precedence over ExternalIP of the service so if
`ingress_status_address` array has non zero elements(addresses) present then it
will used over the ExternalIP of the gateway service.
