.sp
\fI\%mongotop\fP provides a method to track the amount of time a
MongoDB instance \fBmongod\fP spends reading and writing data.
\fI\%mongotop\fP provides statistics on a per\-collection level.
By default, \fI\%mongotop\fP returns values every second.
.sp
Run \fI\%mongotop\fP from the system command line, not the \fBmongo\fP shell.

Starting in version 3.4, if \fB\-\-tlsCAFile\fP/\fBnet.tls.CAFile\fP (or
their aliases \fB\-\-sslCAFile\fP/\fBnet.ssl.CAFile\fP) is not specified
and you are not using x.509 authentication, the system\-wide CA
certificate store will be used when connecting to an TLS/SSL\-enabled
server.
.sp
To use x.509 authentication, \fB\-\-tlsCAFile\fP or \fBnet.tls.CAFile\fP
must be specified unless using \fB\-\-tlsCertificateSelector\fP or
\fB\-\-net.tls.certificateSelector\fP\&. Or if using the \fBssl\fP aliases,
\fB\-\-sslCAFile\fP or \fBnet.ssl.CAFile\fP must be specified unless using

certificate\-key file is encrypted. In all cases, the \fBmongotop\fP will
redact the password from all logging and reporting output.

Bypasses the validation checks for server certificates and allows
the use of invalid certificates. When using the

warning the use of the invalid certificate.
.sp
Starting in MongoDB 4.0, if you specify
\fB\-\-sslAllowInvalidCertificates\fP or
\fBnet.ssl.allowInvalidCertificates: true\fP (or in MongoDB 4.2, the
alias \fB\-\-tlsAllowInvalidateCertificates\fP or
\fBnet.tls.allowInvalidCertificates: true\fP) when using x.509
authentication, an invalid certificate is only sufficient to
establish a TLS/SSL connection but is \fIinsufficient\fP for
authentication.

\fBWARNING:\fP
.INDENT 7.0
.INDENT 3.5
Although available, avoid using the
\fB\-\-sslAllowInvalidCertificates\fP option if possible. If the use of
\fB\-\-sslAllowInvalidCertificates\fP is necessary, only use the option
on systems where intrusion is not possible.
.sp
If the \fBmongo\fP shell (and other
mongodb\-tools\-support\-ssl) runs with the
\fB\-\-sslAllowInvalidCertificates\fP option, the
\fBmongo\fP shell (and other
mongodb\-tools\-support\-ssl) will not attempt to validate
the server certificates. This creates a vulnerability to expired
\fBmongod\fP and \fBmongos\fP certificates as
well as to foreign processes posing as valid

By default \fI\%mongotop\fP connects to the MongoDB instance
running on the localhost port \fB27017\fP\&. However, \fI\%mongotop\fP can optionally
connect to remote \fBmongod\fP
instances. See the \fI\%mongotop options\fP for more
information.
