IsLoggedOn means that the initiator has sent a Logon request and the
acceptor has sent a Logon response.  The FIX session is now logged on and
non-logon/logout messages can be passed.

They are indeed interlinked.  Calling start/stop on the Initiator
starts/stops its event loop, which handles FIX session-level things (e.g.
heartbeats, test requests, logon/logout, etc.) for you.  If you want to
logout out particular session, you can call that session's logout method
directly.  However, if the initiator is not stopped, that session will get
logged back on by the initiator's event loop.
