Perpetually ping 3 devices from startup [duplicate]
This question already has an answer here:
Running an infinite loop on startup
2 answers
I wish to ping three local devices, every 5 min, without stopping, from a Raspberry Pi running Raspbian OS. When my Pi powers on, I want that to automatically start.
I saw an old post about it, but not sure where to start.
cron raspbian ping loop-device

As it is described in the answer you mention the best solution is to use cron. This is the record you need to have to run every 5 minutes:
*/5 * * * * /path/to/shell_script
And the shell script itself can be something like:
#!/bin/bash
ping -q -c1 host1
ping -q -c1 host2
ping -q -c1 host3
