连接MongoDB Atlas

Question

I am trying to connect to my cluster on MongoDB Atlas using MongoDB compass using the string provided by Atlas mongodb+srv://<user-id>:<password>@<url> . Not able to connect. Connection just get closed.

Also tried from command line the mongostat command with the similar string provided by Atlas. There I am getting the error given below.

Please help.
