[CertSrv_Client]
The [CertSrv_Client] section contains entries for the Web client component of Certificate Services. You do not need to include this section in the answer file to install the Web client component of Certificate Services. Enabling Certificate Services in the [Components] section of the answer file installs the necessary files.
The computer saves any entries you specify and processes them only after you restart to configure the Web client Certificate Services. They do not process during unattended installation.
