AzImpersonationLevel Metabase Property

  • Article

Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 with SP1

The AzImpersonationLevel property determines the impersonation behavior for the application, allowing the Web application to be configured to impersonate the client user, the IIS worker process, or the IUSER_* account for the worker process.

Note

Take care in setting this value, as each setting significantly changes the environment and implied design of the Web application.
