title: Authentication in mongodb
body: <p>The connection string for mongodb C# is as follows:</p>
  
  <pre><code>mongodb://[username:password@]hostname[:port][/[database][?options]] 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Does the connection string itself implements the authentication?</p>
  
  <p>I have seen the API of C# driver . It has the 4 methods for authentication:`check authentication, canAuthenticate,isAuthenticated and Authenticate , but they are internal . Please let me know about it? I am in great need of it.Thanks in advance..</p>
