That was what I was afraid for!.
Is this possible to so in TOPS ? I have no idea, can you guide me a bit ?

You are telnetting into SIMH, not into TOPS-x0.  Therefore TOPS does not
have any idea of your IP address for instance.

Anyway, the behaviour depends on if the terminal lines that SIMH connects
the incoming TCP connection to is configured as a modem line or not.  I
think that TOPS by default assumes directly connected terminals and
therefore ignores the loss of carrier that results from closing the TCP
connection.

If the terminal lines are configured with modem control, the job should be
detached.

Correct, but TOPS must know about this as well.
