It depends on the configuration in hosts.cfg.  Typically, for a simple GET
test, it sends:

GET /relpath HTTP/1.0
Host: hostname
User-Agent: Xymon xymonnet/4.3.18
Accept: */*
Pragma: no-cache
<newline>

However, this will vary depending on a range of configurables, such as
whether you have specified a different port number, cookies, if you're
authenticating, or if you're doing a POST test.

More details about how to configure HTTP tests are in the hosts.cfg man
page (in the "HTTP TESTS" section), with some more detail in the man page
for xymonnet.
