5.2.1.4 Disconnect and Resume
Users need a method of controlling and disconnecting sessions from local
mode. For example, if a session on a remote host freezes or hangs while
executing code, the user can exit the session using the Break key, then
terminate the connection by entering the Disconnect command at the Local
prompt. A user may resume a session after returning to local mode by
entering the Resume command. Both commands can affect any active
sessions, not just the current session.

5.2.1.5 Session Limits

factors: available server memory resources, a server-wide limit, and a port-
speciÞc limit. The absolute maximum number of sessions for the MSS is eight.
To reduce the limit further, enter the Change Session Limit command
followed by a number from one to seven.
