MongoDB 8.0 Enterprise Edition
MongoDB 7.0 Enterprise Edition

Depending on the protection group configuration, Veeam Backup & Replication connects to MongoDB using MongoDB Wire Protocol and one of the following methods:

SCRAM
SCRAM with TLS
x509 certificate with TLS

For details, see Authentication Against Replica Set.

Notes:

Community Edition is not supported.
Standalone servers with MongoDB deployments are not supported.
MongoDB sharded clusters are not supported.

Network

Consider the following:

A computer with MongoDB must be able to establish a direct IP connection to the Veeam Backup & Replication server. Thus, a computer with MongoDB cannot work with the Veeam Backup & Replication server that is located behind the NAT gateway.
Domain names of the computer with MongoDB deployment, Veeam Backup & Replication server and other servers in the Veeam backup infrastructure must be resolvable into IPv4 or IPv6 addresses.
