# This file contains classes used for communication with Control Agent.

# This class defines the HTTP request to be sent.
# The supported parameters listed are:
# - path (specifies the path on the server, CA uses only /)
# - http_host - hostname of the CA
# - http-port - TCP port of the CA
# - command - specifies the command to send (e.g. list-commands)
# - timeout - timeout (in ms)
# - headers - extra HTTP headers may be added here
