Summary
The documentation exclusively uses Windows Server as the network virtual appliance (NVA) and provides only Windows-based instructions and PowerShell commands for BGP configuration. There are no Linux alternatives, examples, or references to Linux tools or patterns. The tutorial assumes the use of Windows Server and RRAS, and does not mention or demonstrate how to perform equivalent steps on Linux-based NVAs.
Recommendations
- Add a parallel section showing how to deploy and configure a Linux-based NVA (e.g., Ubuntu or CentOS) for BGP peering.
- Provide Linux command-line examples using tools such as FRRouting (FRR), Quagga, or Bird for BGP configuration.
- Include instructions for connecting to a Linux VM (e.g., via SSH) and configuring BGP peers.
- Reference supported Linux-based NVAs available in the Azure Marketplace.
- Ensure that verification steps (e.g., route learning) include both Azure PowerShell and Azure CLI examples, as CLI is cross-platform.
- Clearly state that the tutorial is applicable to both Windows and Linux NVAs, and highlight any differences or considerations.
