 in two different ways: through a parameter in your connection string, or
 using a method in the ``MongoClientSettings.Builder`` class.

+   If you connect by using the DNS seedlist protocol, indicated by the
+   ``mongodb+srv`` prefix in your connection string, the driver enables
+   TLS/SSL. To disable it, set the ``tls`` or ``ssl`` parameter value to
+   ``false`` in your connection string or ``MongoClientSettings`` instance.
