 Now you have a worker which you can authenticate against, listening on `http://0.0.0.0:5556`, which is the default. Note that the default issuer URL (which can be changed on --issuerURL) is `http://127.0.0.1:5556`. The issuer URL is the base URL (i.e. no query or fragments) uniquely identifying your dex installation.
