Local LogoutInitiator

Indicated by type="Local", this LogoutInitiator performs a local logout without attempting to involve the IdP, and removes the active session from the cache. Upon completion, the browser will be redirected to the location in the "return" query string parameter, if any, or the localLogout template will be displayed.

Please note that this “return” parameter feature is confined to the SP and does not apply to non-local logout protocols such as SAML or other proprietary approaches that involve an IdP. Thus, when multiple logout protocols are in place (e.g., SAML2 and Local), the parameter will often not be applied.
