Summary
The documentation is exclusively focused on configuring traffic mirroring using Hyper-V, a Windows-only virtualization platform, and all examples use Windows tools such as PowerShell and Hyper-V Manager. There are no references to Linux virtualization technologies (e.g., KVM, libvirt, Open vSwitch), nor are there any Linux command-line examples or parity guidance for non-Windows environments. The structure and flow of the documentation assume a Windows context throughout.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent instructions for Linux-based virtualization platforms, such as KVM/QEMU with Open vSwitch, or libvirt.
  • Provide Linux command-line examples (e.g., using ovs-vsctl for Open vSwitch) for traffic mirroring and SPAN port configuration.
  • Include a section comparing Hyper-V and Linux alternatives, and guidance for users operating in non-Windows environments.
  • Clarify in the prerequisites or introduction that the guide is Windows-specific, and link to Linux-focused documentation if available.
  • Ensure future documentation covers cross-platform scenarios, or explicitly states platform limitations.
