Summary
The documentation page displays several types of Windows bias. In troubleshooting sections, Windows tools (PsPing, PowerShell Invoke-WebRequest) are listed alongside Linux equivalents, but Windows tools are hyperlinked and described in more detail. PowerShell is used exclusively for command-line examples to resolve network interface issues, with no Linux CLI (e.g., Azure CLI, Bash) alternatives provided. The use of Azure Resource Explorer is recommended with Microsoft Edge, further reinforcing a Windows-centric approach. Linux users are given less guidance and fewer actionable examples, especially for command-line troubleshooting and remediation.
Recommendations
  • Provide Azure CLI or Bash command examples alongside PowerShell for all resource management and troubleshooting tasks.
  • Include Linux-native tools (e.g., ss, ip, curl, nc) with detailed usage instructions and links, matching the detail given for Windows tools.
  • Ensure troubleshooting steps are platform-neutral or offer parallel instructions for both Windows and Linux environments.
  • Avoid recommending browser-specific tools (e.g., Microsoft Edge) unless strictly necessary, and clarify cross-platform compatibility.
  • Hyperlink Linux tool documentation as is done for Windows tools.
  • Add explicit Linux examples for resolving failed network interface states, not just PowerShell/Resource Explorer.
