Examples

The following code shows how to access this property to set a property in another object.

// This method returns a custom binding created from a WSHttpBinding. Alter the method
// to use the appropriate binding for your service, with the appropriate settings.
public static Binding CreateCustomBinding(TimeSpan clockSkew)
{
    WSHttpBinding standardBinding = new WSHttpBinding(SecurityMode.Message, true);
    CustomBinding myCustomBinding = new CustomBinding(standardBinding);
    SymmetricSecurityBindingElement security =
        myCustomBinding.Elements.Find<SymmetricSecurityBindingElement>();
    security.LocalClientSettings.MaxClockSkew = clockSkew;
    security.LocalServiceSettings.MaxClockSkew = clockSkew;
    // Get the System.ServiceModel.Security.Tokens.SecureConversationSecurityTokenParameters
    SecureConversationSecurityTokenParameters secureTokenParams =
        (SecureConversationSecurityTokenParameters)security.ProtectionTokenParameters;
    // From the collection, get the bootstrap element.
    SecurityBindingElement bootstrap = secureTokenParams.BootstrapSecurityBindingElement;
    // Set the MaxClockSkew on the bootstrap element.
    bootstrap.LocalClientSettings.MaxClockSkew = clockSkew;
    bootstrap.LocalServiceSettings.MaxClockSkew = clockSkew;
    return myCustomBinding;
}

private void Run()
{
    // Create a custom binding using the method defined above. The MaxClockSkew is set to 30 minutes.
    Binding customBinding= CreateCustomBinding(TimeSpan.FromMinutes(30));

    // Create a ServiceHost instance, and add a metadata endpoint.
    // NOTE  When using Visual Studio, you must run as administrator.
    Uri baseUri = new Uri("http://localhost:1008/");
    ServiceHost sh = new ServiceHost(typeof(Calculator), baseUri);

    // Optional. Add a metadata endpoint. The method is defined below.
    AddMetadataEndpoint(ref sh);

    // Add an endpoint using the binding, and open the service.
    sh.AddServiceEndpoint(typeof(ICalculator), customBinding, "myCalculator");

    sh.Open();
    Console.WriteLine("Listening...");
    Console.ReadLine();
}

    ServiceMetadataBehavior sm = new ServiceMetadataBehavior();
    sm.HttpGetEnabled = true;
    sm.HttpGetUrl = mex;
    sh.Description.Behaviors.Add(sm);
}

End Sub

Remarks

The settings are local in the sense that they are not the settings derived from the security policy of the service. You can get the LocalClientSecuritySettings object and use it to set security properties for this binding.
