cURL is a very useful tool when testing monitors

Example syntax for HTTP:

curl http://[ip][port]/[...]

Example syntax for HTTPS:

curl -k https://[ip][port]/[...]

-k to ignore certificate issues

Example to pass a host header

curl --header 'Host: [host]'  [METHOD]://[ip][port]/[...]

Additional useful option

-h for help
-v for verbosity

If different partitions are used, you might need to change the routing domain:

rdexec <route domain id> command
