Python socket.close() does not work until the script exit

Client Codes:

fwd = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET,socket.SOCK_STREAM)    
fwd.connect((oriIp,oriPort)
fwd.close()

I found the close() function did not work. My server (c#) shows the connection still alive. Until the python script is closed , the server will show the state of connection is closed.

I use IronPython 2.7.

See python docs for socket:

Note: close() releases the resource associated with a connection but does not necessarily close the connection immediately. If you want to close the connection in a timely fashion, call shutdown() before close().
