Summary
The documentation page exhibits a strong Windows bias. All example commands and tooling are centered around PowerShell and Windows-specific utilities (AzureCT, PSPing, Windows Firewall, Set-NetTCPSetting). Installation and usage instructions are exclusively for Windows, with no Linux command-line or tool usage shown. While Linux is mentioned as a possible remote host, no Linux-specific guidance, examples, or troubleshooting steps are provided. The documentation assumes Windows as the default environment for both on-premises and Azure VMs, and all performance tuning advice is Windows-centric.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux command-line examples for installing and running iPerf and PSPing (or alternatives like hping, nping, or native ping/traceroute).
  • Include instructions for running performance tests from Linux hosts, including firewall configuration (e.g., using iptables or ufw) and network tuning (e.g., sysctl settings for TCP window size).
  • Document how to use AzureCT or similar toolkits on Linux, or recommend cross-platform alternatives.
  • Add troubleshooting steps and output examples for Linux environments, including sample test results and file locations.
  • Ensure parity in guidance for both Windows and Linux, including VM setup, tool installation, and performance tuning.
  • Mention Linux tools and patterns before or alongside Windows equivalents, rather than only as an afterthought.
