Specifies the proxy user ID used for impersonation. The value for Impersonate User determines your identity and permissions when executing queries. When a value is specified for this option, the driver authenticates according to the setting of the Authentication Method option; then, after establishing a connection, the driver attempts to reauthenticate as the destination user. Note that the administrator must grant CONNECT THROUGH permission to the authenticated user in order to impersonate the destination user; otherwise, an error is returned.
