Is there a way to reset the connection between the syncthing daemons?

The introducer sends the cluster information during a connection establishment and hence need to know if there is a way to break the connection with the introducer or get the cluster config information without resetting the connection with the introducer.

Note: I have a centralised introducer and need to push the cluster config to all the nodes once a new node is added.

Pause breaks the connection. Or restarting.
