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

I used a flag in the Web.config file to indicate when a certificate is self-signed and we also know that we are in a development environment:

In the code we must check this flag to apply the certificate validation exception:

using System.Net;

bool isSelfSignedCertificate = Convert.ToBoolean(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["isSelfSignedCertificate"]);

if (isSelfSignedCertificate)
{
    ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback = delegate { return true; };
}
