Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation exclusively uses Windows Server as the example operating system for the test virtual machine and only describes remote desktop (RDP) access and Internet Explorer for testing. There are no instructions or examples for deploying or testing with a Linux VM, nor are SSH or Linux tools mentioned. This presents a Windows-first bias and lacks Linux parity.
Recommendations
  • Add parallel instructions for deploying a Linux-based virtual machine (e.g., Ubuntu Server) in the test subnet.
  • Include examples for connecting to the Linux VM using SSH, and testing outbound access using Linux tools (e.g., curl, wget, dig).
  • Mention Linux equivalents for remote access and browser testing, such as using Firefox or Chromium.
  • Clarify that the firewall configuration applies equally to Linux workloads, and provide explicit Linux testing steps.
  • Where RDP is referenced, also describe how to test DNAT rules with SSH for Linux VMs.
