Thanks much, yes the --trace-ascii seemed to work just fine. We were
looking for the line "HTTP/1.1 200 OK" as a form of sanity checking.

Command
curl -v --trace-ascii "outfile1" http://somedatapowerdevice:port/firewall

So let me repeat my question: what does the -v output display?

(Alternatively, use "--trace-ascii [file]" to get a full trace of
everything
sent and received by curl.)
