 property bool TrustServerCertificate { bool get(); void set(bool value); };
public bool TrustServerCertificate { get; set; }
member this.TrustServerCertificate : bool with get, set
Public Property TrustServerCertificate As Boolean

Property Value

Boolean

A Boolean. Recognized values are true, false, yes, and no.

Remarks

When TrustServerCertificate is set to true, the transport layer will use SSL to encrypt the channel and bypass walking the certificate chain to validate trust. If TrustServerCertificate is set to true and encryption is turned on, the encryption level specified on the server will be used even if Encrypt is set to false. The connection will fail otherwise.

For more information, see Encryption Hierarchy and Using Encryption Without Validation.
