You can end a TELNET or TN3270 session (close the connection) in
    one of the following ways:

    o  At the remote host's system prompt, log out.

    o  At the remote host's system prompt, return to the TELNET or
       TN3270 prompt and disconnect the session, as follows:

       1. At the remote host's system prompt, press the TELNET/TN3270
          escape character (Ctrl/] is the default).

       2. At the TELNET or TN3270 prompt, enter either the DISCONNECT
          or the close command.
