Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All example commands use PowerShell, and the Azure Connectivity Toolkit (AzureCT) is presented as a PowerShell module with installation and usage instructions tailored exclusively for Windows environments. The toolkit installs supporting applications (iPerf, PSPing) into Windows-specific directories and configures Windows Firewall rules. Linux is mentioned only in passing (as a possible remote host), with no equivalent Linux command-line examples, installation instructions, or troubleshooting guidance. The references and test setups are also Windows-centric, and there is no guidance for Linux users on how to achieve parity in testing or tool usage.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux command-line examples for installing and running iPerf and PSPing (or suitable alternatives) on Linux hosts.
  • Include instructions for configuring Linux firewalls (e.g., ufw, firewalld, iptables) to allow necessary ports for testing.
  • Document how to run performance tests from a Linux host, including sample bash scripts or command-line invocations.
  • Clarify whether AzureCT or similar toolkits are available for Linux, or recommend open-source alternatives for Linux users.
  • Ensure troubleshooting steps and diagrams explicitly address both Windows and Linux environments, including OS-specific nuances.
  • Present examples for both platforms side-by-side or in parallel, rather than defaulting to Windows/PowerShell.
