Summary
The documentation page exhibits a strong Windows bias. All command-line examples for ExpressRoute verification and troubleshooting use Azure PowerShell, with no mention of Azure CLI or Linux-native tools. The only traffic testing tool referenced is PsPing, a Windows-only Sysinternals utility, and there are no Linux alternatives or cross-platform instructions. The structure and flow of the guide present Windows-centric methods first and exclusively, omitting equivalent Linux workflows throughout.
Recommendations
- Provide Azure CLI examples alongside PowerShell for all command-line operations, as Azure CLI is cross-platform and widely used on Linux and macOS.
- Include Linux-native tools for connectivity testing, such as 'ping', 'traceroute', or 'hping', and explain how to interpret their results in the context of ExpressRoute troubleshooting.
- Mention PsPing as a Windows option, but also suggest cross-platform alternatives (e.g., 'nping' from Nmap, 'iperf', or 'hping') for packet counting and connectivity tests.
- Add explicit instructions and sample commands for Linux environments wherever PowerShell or Windows tools are referenced.
- Review the troubleshooting steps to ensure parity between Windows and Linux, including portal navigation and diagnostic workflows.
