    .SYNOPSIS
        Configures a DSC Pull Server with an separately configured IIS Application Pool
 
    .DESCRIPTION
        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: 1 - 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.
                      2 - To configure a Firewall Rule (Exception) to allow external
                          connections the [NetworkingDsc](https://github.com/PowerShell/NetworkingDsc)
                          DSC module is required.
                      3 - The [xWebAdministration](https://github.com/PowerShell/xWebAdministration)
                          DSC module is required to configure the IIS Application Pool
 
    .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.
 
    .PARAMETER Port
        The TCP port on which the Pull Server will listen for connections
 
    .PARAMETER ApplicationPoolName
        The IIS Application Pool to use with the new Pull Server
 
    .EXAMPLE
        $thumbprint = (New-SelfSignedCertificate -DnsName $env:COMPUTERNAME -CertStoreLocation Cert:\LocalMachine\My).Thumbprint
        $registrationKey = [System.Guid]::NewGuid()
