In case I have closed the terminal on which I have started it, as an alternative to `lsof -i TCP:6865` then `kill -9 <process id>`.

I don’t think there’s a way to shut down a node from the Canton Console. But you can use `-t` on `lsof` to turn that into a one-liner: `kill -9 $(lsof -ti TCP:6865)`.
