WCF per connection server certificate validation

Question

I\'m trying to bypass https certificate validation only to our own testing environment (multiple machines), while trying to keep certificate validation for all the other connect

Answer 1

You actually can disable SSL cert validation per client/channel with this code:

var noCertValidationAuth = new X509ServiceCertificateAuthentication() 
{ 
    CertificateValidationMode = X509CertificateValidationMode.None 
};
client.ClientCredentials.ServiceCertificate.SslCertificateAuthentication = noCertValidationAuth;

It is actually a variation of answer in this thread, so kudos there.
