+With this agent plugin you can monitor URLs from the perspective of the monitored host and not the monitoring server ;-)
+
+It is build around cURL from [https://curl.se/](https://curl.se/) based on an idea of Christian Wirtz (doc@snowheaven.de) and Ingo Hambrock.
+
+cURL supports a lot of different protocols like: 
+- dict
+- file
+- ftp / ftps
+- gopher / gophers
+- http / https
+- imap / imaps
+- ldap / ldaps
+- mqtt
+- pop3 / pop3s
+- rtsp
+- scp
+- sftp
+- smb/smbs
+- smtp/smtps
+- telnet
+- tftp
+
 
 *Note*: At the end of this README you will find a list of cURL options implemented so far.
