@item sslverify
Whether to verify the remote server's certificate when connecting over SSL. It
can have the value 'on' or 'off'. It defaults to 'on'.
+
+@item cookie
+Send this cookie (it can also be a list of cookies separated by ';') with
+each outgoing request. Only supported when using protocols such as HTTP
+which support cookies, otherwise ignored.
+
+@item timeout
+Set the timeout in seconds of the CURL connection. This timeout is the time
+that CURL waits for a response from the remote server to get the size of the
+image to be downloaded. If not set, the default timeout of 5 seconds is used.

Note that when passing options to qemu explicitly, @option{driver} is the value
