Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: command-line examples (such as nslookup) are shown exclusively with Windows-style prompts (e.g., 'c:\ >'), and PowerShell's Test-NetConnection is recommended for connectivity checks without mentioning Linux equivalents. There are no Linux shell or tool examples (e.g., dig, host, curl, netcat), nor are Linux troubleshooting patterns or file paths referenced. The guidance assumes the reader is using a Windows-based 'appliance' and does not provide parity for Linux environments.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux shell equivalents for all command-line examples, such as using 'dig', 'host', or 'nslookup' in bash, and 'nc' or 'curl' for connectivity tests.
  • Mention Linux file paths and editing procedures for hosts file (e.g., '/etc/hosts') alongside Windows instructions.
  • Include troubleshooting steps and screenshots for Linux-based appliances or environments.
  • Reference cross-platform tools and commands where possible, and avoid assuming PowerShell or Windows CLI as the default.
  • Explicitly state that the guidance applies to both Windows and Linux, and clarify any differences in procedure.
