    Description

      RE: http://docs.mongodb.org/v2.6/reference/parameters/#param.authenticationMechanisms

      PLAIN and GSSAPI are marked with:
      "This mechanism is available only in MongoDB Enterprise."

      That statement is also true for MONGODB-X509, but more importantly:

      The entire "authenticationMechanisms" parameter is not even recognized as a valid option in 2.6. Curiously, it is possible to 'getParameter' on it, and it will always return MONGODB-CR, but if we setParameter on the command-line, the server won't start.

      The whole "authenticationMechanisms" topic should be labelled "only valid in Enterprise" for 2.6.
