The terminal emulation app that you use should have the capability to send
a telnet break to the terminal server.  The terminal server in turn will
assert physical break on the line connected to the device.

There are a couple of line commands that can affect the behavior when
certain telnet commands are received.  Specifically:

telnet break-on-ip
	To cause the system to generate a hardware BREAK signal on the EIA/TIA-232
line that is associated with a reverse Telnet connection when a Telnet
Interrupt-Process command is received on that connection, use the telnet
break-on-ip command in line configuration mode.

telnet sync-on-break
	To configure the Cisco IOS software to cause an incoming connection to
send a Telnet Synchronize signal when it receives a Telnet BREAK signal,
use the telnet sync-on-break command in line configuration mode. To disable
this function, use the no form of this command.
