Summary
The documentation exhibits a moderate Windows bias. Windows Server RRAS is the only on-premises VPN appliance mentioned by name, and it is described before any generic or Linux alternatives. The only specific configuration link for on-premises VPN appliances is for Windows Server RRAS. While Azure CLI and PowerShell examples are provided in parity, PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) is given equal prominence, and some commands for retrieving information (e.g., public IP address) are only shown in PowerShell. There are no examples or guidance for configuring a Linux-based VPN appliance (e.g., strongSwan, Openswan), nor are any Linux tools or patterns mentioned for on-premises setup.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly mention and link to guidance for configuring common Linux VPN appliances (e.g., strongSwan, Openswan, Libreswan) alongside Windows RRAS.
  • Provide example configuration steps or references for Linux-based VPN appliances in the 'Configure on-premises network appliance' section.
  • When listing on-premises VPN appliance options, mention Linux-based solutions before or alongside Windows Server RRAS.
  • Add CLI commands for retrieving public IP addresses and other resources, not just PowerShell.
  • Ensure parity in troubleshooting and verification steps for both Windows and Linux environments.
