 Description   

----------------------------

Original Description

Description:

Command line/config options with "ssl" are now deprecated--canonical versions are now their "tls" counterparts (excluding options with "openssl").

Engineering Ticket Description:

Today to start the server with TLS, you may run a command like:

./mongod --sslMode requireSSL --sslPEMKeyFile server.pem

This is slightly misleading, because the server does not speak SSL, which is a deprecated protocol. We should have aliases to equivalent options which use the name "tls". This will make users understand and feel better about their security posture.
