How to search with maven plugin in archiva

Using this maven plugin:

http://www.mojohaus.org/versions-maven-plugin/index.html

With this command line:

mvn versions:display-dependency-updates

Maven can connect to Archiva to retrieve the list of dependencies a project is using and check if it uses the latest version of it.

How does it work? Does maven use HTTP to retrieve the information?
