	 * This method is called after the connection's underlying

	 * user, if the peer closed the connection, due to a fatal error during connect()
	 * (also if the socket cannot be established) or if a fatal error occured on
	 * an established connection.
	 * 
	 * This is an experimental feature.
	 * 

	 * You MUST NOT make any assumption about the thread that invokes this method.
	 * 
	 * Please note: if the connection is not connected (e.g., there was no successful
	 * connect() call), then the invocation of {@link Connection#close()} will NOT trigger
	 * this method.
	 * 
	 * @see Connection#addConnectionMonitor(ConnectionMonitor)
	 * 
	 * @param reason Includes an indication why the socket was closed.
