I believe a plain Linux kill commands sends a SIGTERM signal for a graceful shutdown. This is usually what a stop button comes down to, but you would need to check because the command can also be fed options to perform a SIGKILL.
After closing the server you should see in the server log that the plugins were unloaded and that something along the lines of "server shutting down" was printed.
On Windows you should probably type exit in the server console for a graceful shutdown.
