- reset [<session_number>]
-
- Reset the specified session; if no argument is given, reset the
- current session.
-
- This command should be used with caution since it does not
- reliably inform the remote end that the connection no longer
- exists. In TCP a reset (RST) message will be automatically
- generated should the remote TCP send anything after a local reset
- has been done. In AX.25 the DM message performs a similar role.
- Both are used to get rid of a lingering half-open connection
- after a remote system has crashed.
