There is no command for this.

It can be done with a plugin, but is a lot of work and it must be fixed
almost everytime Valve updates steamclient.so library (is stripped, so
signatures must be used for everything). The idea is to call
CCMinterface::ConnectionDisconnected method with k_EResultIOFailure error
code, to force the server to reconnect to another CM in few seconds. This is
tricky because the call must be made from a thread managed by steamclient.so
library, not from server's main thread. For Windows probably is same thing.

There's a manual solution too: find the port used by server for talking with
CM server (usually is 26901, but only if is not already used) and use the
firewall to block the communication. In few seconds you'll see that the
server loses connection with Steam servers. Then remove the firewall rule
and the server will reconnect back in few seconds, probably to a different
CM server, maybe using a different protocol (TCP instead UDP).

Subject: [hlds_linux] Reconnect to steam command?

Is there a command to reconnect to Steam?

Sometimes a server will lose connection to the item server or
quickplay, and it will not reconnect until the server is rebooted.
Changing maps does not help.
