tcpdrop |

faddr fport |
The tcpdrop
command drops the TCP connection specified
by the local address laddr, port
lport and the foreign address
faddr, port fport. Addresses and
ports can be specified by name or numeric value.
If a connection to httpd(8) is
causing congestion on a network link, one can drop the TCP session in charge:
$ fstat | grep 'httpd.*internet.*<--'
www httpd 21307 3* internet stream tcp \
0xd1007ca8 192.168.5.41:80 <-- 192.168.5.1:26747
The following command will drop the connection:
# tcpdrop 192.168.5.41 80 192.168.5.1 26747
