The ping command is frequently used when monitoring and maintaining servers. It works by sending ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) request packets to a specific target server to check its reachability. The ping command displays the time taken for each request, and shorter times indicate faster network speeds from the client to the server.

You can use third-party testing tools to measure the ping values from various locations to the cloud server. Common testing tool websites include:

http://ping.chinaz.com (domestic testing points)
http://ping.pe (global testing points)

You can also test the ping values from your local machine to the cloud server. In the Windows operating system, open the Run dialog and type "cmd" to enter the command prompt window. Then, enter "ping IP -t" followed by the server address to start the test. The "-t" flag represents continuous requests, which can be interrupted by pressing Ctrl+C.

Assuming the cloud server's IP address is 58.215.65.1, the test results are as follows:

C:\Users\Administrator>ping 103.90.84.159 -t
