I'm guessing but...
When the user dials in the "service" they have established the connection
with is the DTC User Interface, since a :BYE doesn't terminate the DTC
Interface session the connection isn't dropped. My guess is that if this
was a "nailed" connection (i.e. switching disabled on the port) then the
:BYE *would* drop the connection.
