Not able to access Nginx from an external IP even after k8s nodeport service exposed – Ubuntu

I am not able to access the nginx server using http://:30602 and also http://:30602

OS: Ubuntu 22

I also checked if any firewall is blocking it.

Using ufw

admin@tst-server:~$ sudo ufw status verbose
Status: inactive

Using netstat

admin@tst-server:~$ netstat -an | grep 22 | grep -i listen
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:22              0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN
