Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation consistently references Azure VMs and configuration steps through the Azure portal, implicitly assuming Windows-based environments. All VM examples (JSVM1, JSVM2) are generic but the verification steps (e.g., 'sign in to Azure VM and ping') do not specify or provide Linux-specific instructions, nor do they mention Linux tools or alternatives. There are no PowerShell-specific instructions, but the absence of Linux CLI examples or references to Linux-based Azure VMs (e.g., Ubuntu, CentOS) suggests a Windows-first bias and a lack of Linux parity.
Recommendations
  • Include explicit examples for both Windows and Linux Azure VMs, such as verifying connectivity using Windows Command Prompt (ping) and Linux shell (ping, traceroute).
  • Add instructions or screenshots for configuring VPN and firewall rules using Azure CLI and Linux tools, not just the Azure portal UI.
  • Mention Linux distributions as supported VM types in test scenarios, and provide sample commands for both platforms.
  • Clarify that all steps are applicable to both Windows and Linux VMs, or specify any differences in configuration or troubleshooting.
  • Where possible, provide parity in troubleshooting steps (e.g., checking tunnel status, connectivity) for Linux environments.
