Local Signing Requester (signingService-LocalSigningRequester)

This component is a client to the Local Signing Transport and provides a parent component with the ability to make requests to onboard/renew with a Signing Service running in the same station.

It is not possible to drop an instance of the Local Signing Requester onto any arbitrary component as code is required to support the interaction between the component and the requester. For more information, see “Installing a Signing Requester”.
