Configure MCP Connection Settings

See more MCP Client Examples

Demonstrates Mcp.SetConnectionSettings, which copies connection settings -- such as an HTTP proxy, SOCKS proxy, bind IP address, and TLS options -- from a Socket and applies them before connecting.

Background. This is optional; if not used, a direct connection is made. It is useful when the MCP server must be reached through a proxy or with specific TLS settings.
