Summary
The documentation demonstrates a bias toward Windows environments. The only explicit example for testing DNS resolution uses Windows PowerShell, with no mention of Linux equivalents (e.g., Bash, dig, or nslookup on Linux). The instructions for connecting to the test VM assume a Windows OS (PowerShell, Microsoft Edge) and do not provide steps for Linux users. There is no guidance for performing the same DNS resolution or connectivity tests from a Linux VM, nor are Linux command-line tools referenced.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-specific instructions and examples for testing DNS resolution (e.g., using 'dig' or 'nslookup' in Bash).
  • Include steps for connecting to the test VM using SSH, which is standard for Linux environments, in addition to Bastion/PowerShell.
  • Mention Linux browsers (e.g., Firefox, Chrome) when testing web app connectivity, or clarify that any browser can be used.
  • Add a note or section explaining how to perform all verification steps on a Linux VM, including command syntax and expected output.
  • Ensure parity by listing both Windows and Linux options for all command-line and connectivity steps.
