~~~~
As of release 1.6 of the .NET driver, to use SSL with a server, all that is needed
is to add an option to the connection string, "ssl=true".

.. code-block:: csharp

var connectionString = "mongodb://localhost/?ssl=true";
var server = MongoServer.Create(connectionString);

Using SSL in the .NET driver will cause the server certificates to get validated
against the local trusted certificate store. This can cause issues in testing due
to test machines not having trusted certificates. If this is the case, you can
add another option to prevent validating the certificates, "sslverifycertificate=false".

.. code-block:: csharp

var connectionString = "mongodb://localhost/?ssl=true&sslverifycertificate=false";
var server = MongoServer.Create(connectionString);
