Deleting a TCP Connection
This procedure explains how you can use the TCP connections table to
end a Telnet, SSH, or web browser management session on a switch.
This procedure is useful if a manager forgot to log out after ending a
session or if you suspect that an unauthorized person is accessing the
switch’s management software.
Before performing this procedure, display the TCP table by performing the
procedure “Displaying the TCP Connections” on page 171 and write down
on paper the index number of the connection you want to end. A web
browser management session can consist of more than one TCP
connection.
You cannot delete the entries for the listening sockets for the Telnet, SSH,
and web browser servers. To remove a listening socket entry from the
table, disable the corresponding server.
To delete a TCP connection, perform the following procedure:
1. From the Main Menu, type 5 to select System Administration.
The System Administration menu is shown in Figure 4 on page 46.
2. From the System Administration menu, type 9 to select System
Utilities.
The System Utilities menu is shown in Figure 7 on page 53.
3. From the System Utilities menu, type 6 to select Networking Stack.
The Networking Stack menu is shown in Figure 50 on page 165.
4. From the Networking Stack menu, type 7 to select Delete TCP
Connection.
The following prompt is displayed:
Enter the TCP Connection Index: [0 to 65535] ->
5. Enter the connection index number.
To display the TCP connections and see the index numbers, refer to
“Displaying the TCP Connections” on page 171.
6. Enter the index number of the connection you want to delete and press
Enter. You can enter only one index number at a time.
The connection is deleted and the table is refreshed.
7. Return to the Main Menu.
