### 5.5 Cleanup remote connections

TRAMP provides several ways to flush remote connections.

Command: tramp-cleanup-connection vec

  This command flushes all connection related objects. `vec` is the internal representation of a remote connection. When called interactively, this command lists active remote connections in the minibuffer. Each connection is of the format `/method:user@host:`. Flushing remote connections also cleans the password cache (see Password handling), file cache, connection cache (see Connection caching), and connection buffers.

Command: tramp-cleanup-this-connection

  Flushes only the current buffer’s remote connection objects, the same as in `tramp-cleanup-connection`.

Command: tramp-cleanup-all-connections

  Flushes all active remote connection objects, the same as in `tramp-cleanup-connection`.

Command: tramp-cleanup-all-buffers

  Just as for `tramp-cleanup-all-connections`, all remote connections are cleaned up in addition to killing buffers related to that remote connection.
