shutdown session

Terminate a client’s session.

Description Jump to heading #

When a client connects to the load balancer, the load balancer maintains a session with that client until their connection with the backend server has finished. You can see active sessions with the show sess command. Use shutdown session to stop a specific session.

Examples Jump to heading #

Use show sess to display a list of active sessions:

nix
echo "show sess" | \
  sudo socat stdio tcp4-connect:127.0.0.1:9999

nix
echo "show sess" | \
  sudo socat stdio tcp4-connect:127.0.0.1:9999

The first field is the session’s unique identifier, which you can pass to shutdown session to terminate the session:

nix
echo "shutdown session 0x55f09d21c9e0" | \
  sudo socat stdio tcp4-connect:127.0.0.1:9999

nix
echo "shutdown session 0x55f09d21c9e0" | \
  sudo socat stdio tcp4-connect:127.0.0.1:9999
