Summary
The documentation page presents VM connectivity options with Windows RDP listed before Linux SSH and RDP, and Windows SSH connectivity only available in higher SKUs. There are no explicit usage examples or command-line instructions for either Windows or Linux, but the feature tables and descriptions consistently mention Windows connectivity (RDP, SSH) before Linux equivalents, and do not provide parity in protocol support (e.g., Linux RDP is only supported in Standard/Premium SKUs, while Windows RDP is supported in all SKUs). There are no Linux-specific tools or workflows highlighted, and the documentation does not offer Linux-centric guidance or examples.
Recommendations
  • Ensure feature tables and descriptions list Linux and Windows connectivity options with equal prominence, alternating order or grouping by protocol rather than OS.
  • Provide explicit examples or references for connecting to both Linux and Windows VMs, including command-line instructions for SSH (Linux) and RDP (Windows), and highlight cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI, native SSH clients).
  • Clarify protocol support parity, explaining why Linux RDP and Windows SSH are only available in higher SKUs, and offer guidance or alternatives for Linux users in lower SKUs.
  • Add links to Linux-specific documentation or tutorials for remote access via Azure Bastion, ensuring Linux administrators have clear guidance.
  • Review and update any upgrade or deployment instructions to include both Windows and Linux scenarios, avoiding implicit prioritization of Windows workflows.
