Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing PowerShell and Windows-centric tools for configuration and management tasks, without providing equivalent Linux or cross-platform examples. The only explicit example for managing ExpressRoute routing is via PowerShell, and links to management APIs reference Windows documentation. There are no CLI, Bash, or Linux-native instructions or examples, and Windows tools and patterns are mentioned exclusively or before any cross-platform alternatives.
Recommendations
  • Include Azure CLI (az) examples alongside or instead of PowerShell for all configuration and management tasks, as Azure CLI is cross-platform and works on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
  • Provide Bash or shell script examples for common ExpressRoute tasks, especially for routing and circuit management.
  • Reference cross-platform documentation and tools (e.g., Azure CLI, REST API) before or alongside Windows/Powershell-specific resources.
  • Ensure that all links to management APIs and guides include Linux and macOS compatibility notes or alternatives, not just Windows.
  • Explicitly state when a procedure is platform-agnostic, and avoid assuming the user is on Windows.
  • Add a section or callout for Linux administrators, highlighting any differences or additional steps required for Linux environments.
