To terminate an encrypted session in progress, use the clear crypto connection global configuration command.
clear crypto connection connection-id [slot | rsm | vip ]
connection-id  Identifies the encrypted session to terminate.
slot  (Optional) Identifies the crypto engine. This argument is available only on Cisco 7200, RSP7000, and 7500 series routers.
If no slot is specified, the Cisco IOS crypto engine will be selected.
Use the chassis slot number of the crypto engine location. For the Cisco IOS crypto engine, this is the chassis slot number of the Route Switch Processor (RSP). For the VIP2 crypto engine, this is the chassis slot number of the VIP2. For the ESA crypto engine, this is the chassis slot number of the ESA (Cisco 7200) or of the VIP2 (Cisco RSP7000 and 7500).
rsm (Optional) This keyword is only available on the Cisco Catalyst 5000 series switch. It identifies the Route Switch Module on the Cisco Catalyst 5000 series switch.
vip (Optional) This keyword is only available on the Cisco Catalyst 5000 series switch. It identifies the Versatile Interface Processor on the Cisco Catalyst 5000 series switch.

Use this command to terminate an encrypted session currently in progress. Encrypted sessions will normally terminate when the session times out. Use the show crypto cisco connections command to learn the connection-id value.
The following example clears a pending encrypted session. (You could also clear an established encrypted session in the same way.)
Router1# show crypto cisco connections Pending Connection Table PE UPE Timestamp Conn_id 192.168.3.10 192.168.204.100 Mar 01 1993 00:01:09 -1 Connection Table PE UPE Conn_id New_id Alg Time Slot 192.168.3.10 192.168.204.100 -1 1 0 Not Set 4 flags:PEND_CONN Router1# clear crypto connection -1 Router1# show crypto cisco connections Connection Table PE UPE Conn_id New_id Alg Time 192.168.3.10 192.168.204.100 0 0 0 Mar 01 1993 00:02:00 flags:BAD_CONN Router1#
First, the show crypto cisco connections command is issued to learn the connection-id for the pending connection (-1). This value is then used to specify which connection to clear.
Notice that after the connection is cleared, the Pending Connection Table containing the connection entry (connection-id of -1) has disappeared from the show crypto cisco connections output. Also, the Connection Table no longer shows a -1 Conn_id.
