)

public:
virtual IAsyncAction^ UpgradeToSslAsync(
	[InAttribute] SocketProtectionLevel^ protectionLevel, 
	[InAttribute] HostName^ validationHostName
) sealed

function UpgradeToSslAsync(protectionLevel, validationHostName);

Parameters

protectionLevel: Type: Windows.Networking.SocketsSocketProtectionLevel
The protection level that represents the integrity and encryption on the GDStreamSocket object.
validationHostName: Type: Windows.NetworkingHostName
The hostname of the remote network destination that is used for validation when upgrading to SSL.

Remarks

The UpgradeToSslAsync(SocketProtectionLevel, HostName) method can only be used to upgrade an already established connection made with a SocketProtectionLevel of PlainSocket. The UpgradeToSslAsync(SocketProtectionLevel, HostName) method requires that the remote server to which the connection was established is able to upgrade a TCP connection to an SSL connection.
