Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively providing onboarding and configuration examples using Azure PowerShell cmdlets and Windows-style variable declarations. There are no equivalent CLI (az), Bash, or Linux-native examples for onboarding, managing ExpressRoute, or enabling features. The only mention of Linux is in the context of installing a Red Hat Satellite server, but no Linux command-line or automation examples are provided. The documentation assumes familiarity with PowerShell and Windows-centric tooling, which may disadvantage Linux users.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent Azure CLI (az) and Bash examples for all PowerShell commands and workflows, especially for ExpressRoute and network configuration.
- When introducing command-line examples, present both Windows/PowerShell and Linux/Bash/CLI options, or clearly indicate which platforms each example applies to.
- Explicitly mention Linux-compatible tools and patterns (such as Bash scripting, cloud-init, or Ansible) where appropriate.
- Ensure that references to enabling features (like Accelerated Networking) include links and steps for both Windows and Linux VMs.
- Review the order of presentation so that Linux and Windows are treated equally, or alternate which platform is presented first in examples.
