This plugin tests the HTTP service on the specified host. It can test
normal (http) and secure (https) servers, follow redirects, search for
strings and regular expressions, check connection times, and report on
certificate expiration times.

Usage: check_http [-H <vhost> | -I IP-address] [-u <uri>] [-p <port>]
          [-w <warn time>] [-c <critical time>] [-t <timeout>] [-L]
          [-a auth] [-f <ok | warn | critcal | follow>] [-e <expect>]
          [-s string] [-r <regex> | -R <case-insensitive regex>]
          [-P string]
       check_http --help
       check_http --version
NOTE: One or both of -H and -I must be specified

Options:
 -H, --hostname=ADDRESS
    Host name argument for servers using host headers (virtual host)
 -I, --IP-address=ADDRESS
    IP address or name (use numeric address if possible to bypass DNS lookup).
 -e, --expect=STRING
    String to expect in first line of server response (default: HTTP/1.)
 -s, --string=STRING
    String to expect in the content
 -u, --url=PATH
    URL to GET or POST (default: /)
 -p, --port=INTEGER
    Port number (default: 80)
 -P, --post=STRING
    URL encoded http POST data
 -w, --warning=INTEGER
    Response time to result in warning status (seconds)
 -c, --critical=INTEGER
    Response time to result in critical status (seconds)
 -t, --timeout=INTEGER
    Seconds before connection times out (default: 10)
 -a, --authorization=AUTH_PAIR
    Username:password on sites with basic authentication
 -L, --link=URL
    Wrap output in HTML link (obsoleted by urlize)
 -f, --onredirect=<ok|warning|critical|follow>
    How to handle redirected pages
 -S, --ssl
    Connect via SSL
 -C, --certificate=INTEGER
    Minimum number of days a certificate has to be valid.
    (when this option is used the url is not checked.)

 -v, --verbose
    Show details for command-line debugging (do not use with netsaint server)
 -h, --help
    Print detailed help screen
 -V, --version
    Print version information


This plugin can also check whether an SSL enabled web server is able
to serve content (optionally within a specified time) orwhether the
X509 certificate is still valid for the specified number of days.

Check ability to serve content:
===============================
Example: check_http -w 5 -c 10 --ssl www.verisign.com
When the 'www.verisign.com' server returns its content within 5
seconds, a STATE_OK will be returned. When the server returns its
content but exceeds the 5-second threshold, a STATE_WARNING will be
returned. When an error occurs, a STATE_CRITICAL will be returned.

Check validity of certificate:
==============================
Example: check_http www.verisign.com -C 14
When the certificate of 'www.verisign.com' is valid for more than 14
days, a STATE_OK is returned. When the certificate is still valid, but
for less than 14 days, a STATE_WARNING is returned. A STATE_CRITICAL
will be returned when the certificate is expired.
