Summary
The documentation page is largely platform-neutral, focusing on Azure networking concepts and requirements. However, there are several instances where Windows-specific tools, services, or endpoints are referenced without equivalent Linux mentions. Notably, the KMS endpoint section is exclusively about Windows VM activation, and the internal infrastructure section lists endpoints for Windows Update and Windows Defender without Linux equivalents or clarifications. Additionally, a referenced link for connecting VNets uses 'powershell' in its filename, suggesting a Windows-centric example. There are no explicit Linux or cross-platform command examples provided.
Recommendations
  • When mentioning Windows-specific requirements (e.g., KMS, Windows Update, Windows Defender), clarify whether there are any equivalent requirements or considerations for Linux VMs, or explicitly state that these are not applicable to Linux.
  • If providing links or examples for VNet connectivity or configuration, include both PowerShell (Windows) and Azure CLI/Bash (cross-platform/Linux) options, or link to documentation that covers both.
  • Add a section or notes on Linux VM considerations for API Management in VNets, if any, to ensure parity and clarity for non-Windows users.
  • Where possible, avoid implying that Windows is the default or only supported platform by using neutral language and providing cross-platform guidance.
