Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several areas. When creating a VM to test the private endpoint, only Windows Server is used as the example OS, both in the Azure Portal and Azure CLI instructions. The instructions for verifying DNS resolution and connectivity use PowerShell commands inside the Windows VM, with no mention of Linux alternatives (e.g., using Ubuntu and the dig or nslookup command in Bash). There are no examples or guidance for Linux VM creation or testing, and Windows tools/patterns (PowerShell, Windows Server image) are mentioned exclusively.
Recommendations
  • Add parallel instructions for creating a Linux VM (e.g., Ubuntu) in both Azure Portal and Azure CLI sections.
  • Provide Linux-based commands for DNS resolution and connectivity testing (e.g., using dig or nslookup in Bash).
  • When listing VM image options, mention both Windows and Linux images, or make Linux the default for parity.
  • Where PowerShell is used, offer equivalent Bash commands for Linux users.
  • Explicitly state that the steps apply to both Windows and Linux, and highlight any OS-specific differences.
