Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: examples for configuring on-premises DNS conditional forwarders exclusively use Windows DNS Server, with no mention of Linux-based DNS solutions (such as BIND or dnsmasq). The procedures and screenshots focus on Windows tools and interfaces, and there are no Linux-specific instructions or parity in examples. Additionally, PowerShell is referenced before CLI in some quickstart links, reinforcing a Windows-first approach.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent instructions and screenshots for configuring conditional forwarders using popular Linux DNS servers (e.g., BIND, dnsmasq, Unbound).
  • Include Linux CLI examples (such as using dig, nsupdate, or relevant configuration files) alongside PowerShell and portal instructions.
  • Explicitly mention that the procedures apply to both Windows and Linux DNS servers, and provide guidance for each.
  • Reorder quickstart links to present CLI and cross-platform options before or alongside PowerShell.
  • Where screenshots are used, provide both Windows and Linux examples, or use generic representations.
  • Add troubleshooting and validation steps using Linux tools (e.g., dig, host) in the demonstration sections.
