Summary
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias by providing connectivity troubleshooting examples using PSPING in PowerShell, a Windows-only tool, without offering equivalent Linux commands or tools. The order of examples places the Windows-centric PSPING after redis-cli, but does not mention Linux alternatives for network connectivity testing. There is also a lack of parity in troubleshooting steps for Linux users, especially in the 'Test connectivity using PSPING' section.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux equivalents for PSPING, such as using 'nc', 'telnet', or 'nmap' to test port connectivity.
  • Include example commands for both Windows and Linux platforms side-by-side in troubleshooting sections.
  • Explicitly mention platform-specific tools and recommend alternatives for each OS.
  • Review all troubleshooting steps to ensure Linux users are given clear, actionable instructions.
  • Consider reordering examples so that cross-platform tools (e.g., redis-cli, nc) are presented before platform-specific ones.
