Is there any other terminology or condition that should be explicitly mentioned somehow?  The important point in most places where "crash" is used is that the host has lost all of its memory about connections in-progress and associated connection state, and that's easy to retain without saying "crash".

I think using "reboot" would be a good substitute here.
