Is pinging snap using cmd allowed?

Pretty sure it is.

for a bit of context as to what they're talking about

They're talking about opening the command prompt (cmd), the running this command

ping https://snap.berkeley.edu

Which will ping snap.

what do you plan to do with this though?

We wouldn't be happy if you did it a zillion times in a tight loop.

Just wondering, why would you want to do this? Are you just messing around with networking?
