You can write connection string in web.config file two ways:-
1.
2. You will have to use the "standard" way and also you can encrypt connection string.
Using add key you can not encrypt connection string, it will through error "Unrecognized attribute 'key'.."
add name used in Connectionstring tag of web.config file, it will give name of connection string while add key used in appsettings tag of web.config file.
