Summary
The documentation page exhibits a strong Windows bias in its operational examples and tooling. All command-line instructions for enabling/disabling and configuring logs (DNS Flow Trace, Top Flows, Flow Trace) are provided exclusively using Azure PowerShell, which is most commonly used on Windows and is not the default on Linux. There are no equivalent examples for Azure CLI, Bash, or other Linux-native tools. The documentation does not mention or prioritize Linux-compatible methods, nor does it provide parity for Linux administrators. This may hinder users who manage Azure resources from Linux environments.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Azure CLI (az) command examples for all PowerShell instructions, as Azure CLI is cross-platform and widely used on Linux.
- Explicitly mention that all operations can be performed from Linux/macOS using Azure CLI or PowerShell Core, and provide guidance for both environments.
- Add Bash script examples where appropriate, especially for tasks like log configuration and verification.
- Include a section or notes on platform compatibility, clarifying which commands/tools work on Windows, Linux, and macOS.
- Where GUI steps are described, clarify that the Azure Portal is accessible from any OS/browser.
- Review and update reusable content includes to ensure they do not reinforce Windows-first patterns.
