Sample_xDscWebServiceRegistration.ps1

<#
    .SYNOPSIS
        The Sample_xDscWebServiceRegistration configuration sets up a DSC pull
        server that is capable for client nodes to register with it and
        retrieve configuration documents with configuration names instead of
        configuration id.

        Prerequisite: Install a certificate in 'CERT:\LocalMachine\MY\' store
                      For testing environments, you could use a self-signed
                      certificate. (New-SelfSignedCertificate cmdlet could
                      generate one for you). For production environments, you
                      will need a certificate signed by valid CA. Registration
                      only works over https protocols. So to use registration
                      feature, a secure pull server setup with certificate is
                      necessary.

    .PARAMETER NodeName
        The name of the node being configured as a DSC Pull Server.

    .PARAMETER CertificateThumbPrint
        Certificate thumbprint for creating an HTTPS endpoint. Use
        "AllowUnencryptedTraffic" for setting up a non SSL based endpoint.

    .PARAMETER RegistrationKey
        This key will be used by client nodes as a shared key to authenticate
        during registration. This should be a string with enough entropy
        (randomness) to protect the registration of clients to the pull server.
        The example creates a new GUID for the registration key.

    .EXAMPLE
        $thumbprint = (New-SelfSignedCertificate -DnsName $env:COMPUTERNAME -CertStoreLocation Cert:\LocalMachine\My).Thumbprint
        $registrationKey = [System.Guid]::NewGuid()

    .SYNOPSIS
        The Sample_MetaConfigurationToRegisterWithSecurePullServer registers
        a DSC client node with the pull server.

    .PARAMETER NodeName
        The name of the node being configured as a DSC Pull Server.

    .PARAMETER RegistrationKey
        This key will be used by client nodes as a shared key to authenticate

    .PARAMETER ServerName
        The HostName to use when configuring the Pull Server URL on the DSC
        client.
