The signals understood are:
<UL>
<LI>SIGHUP - Reload the config from disk and re-open log file</LI>
<LI>SIGTERM / SIGINT - Shut down.</LI>
<LI>SIGQUIT - Shut down cleanly. This will send a disconnect message for
every active session and tunnel before shutting down.</LI>
</UL>

<DT>SIGHUP</DT><DD>Reload the config from disk and re-open log file.</DD>
<DT>SIGTERM, SIGINT</DT><DD>Stop process. Tunnels and sessions are not
terminated. This signal should be used to stop l2tpns on a
<A HREF="#Clustering">cluster node</A> where there are other machines to
continue handling traffic.</DD>
<DT>SIGQUIT</DT><DD>Shut down: closes sessions and tunnels.</DD>
