Use 'close' on the client side.

On the server side  -  you can't.  The connection WAIT TIME
is server config dependent; for example on my Ultra 1,
I have -

some request TIME_WAIT
some request FIN_WAIT_2

These will time-out based upon what I have the /dev/tcp options set as.

You can see what that are using   ndd /dev/tcp \?

There are similar config settings for other servers...
