Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by providing command-line examples (such as nslookup) in a Windows context (e.g., 'c:\ >nslookup'), referencing PowerShell-specific tools (Test-NetConnection), and omitting equivalent Linux/Unix commands and troubleshooting steps. All screenshots and command prompts are Windows-centric, and there are no Bash, Linux shell, or cross-platform instructions. The guidance for editing the hosts file and DNS troubleshooting is written as if the appliance is always Windows-based, with no mention of Linux paths or tools.
Recommendations
  • Include Linux/Unix command-line examples for DNS resolution (e.g., 'dig', 'host', 'nslookup' in Bash).
  • Provide troubleshooting steps for both Windows and Linux appliances, including file paths for hosts file (e.g., /etc/hosts for Linux).
  • Add Bash equivalents for PowerShell commands, such as using 'nc' or 'telnet' for port connectivity checks instead of only Test-NetConnection.
  • Show screenshots or terminal output from Linux environments alongside Windows examples.
  • Explicitly state that the instructions apply to both Windows and Linux, or clarify any platform-specific requirements.
  • Mention Linux-specific proxy and DNS configuration steps where relevant.
