This command is supported in all Digi Connect Family devices.
Purpose Closes active connect, Rlogin, and Telnet sessions; that is, sessions
opened by “connect,” “rlogin,” or “telnet” commands.
The “close” command is associated with the sessions displayed by the
“status” command.
A “close” command issued without any options closes the current
connection.
To issue the “close” command, you must escape the active session. Do this
by pressing the escape key defined for your session type. The following
table lists default escape keys.

lets you kill connections from the global list. That is, it is not limited to
sessions associated with the current connection.
