Summary
The tutorial demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively using a Windows Server virtual machine as the workload example and instructing users to test connectivity via Remote Desktop (RDP), which is a Windows-centric protocol. There are no examples or instructions for deploying a Linux VM, nor are there alternative test methods (such as SSH) provided for Linux users. The documentation does not mention or show parity for Linux-based scenarios.
Recommendations
- Add parallel instructions for deploying a Linux virtual machine (e.g., Ubuntu) in the workload subnet.
- Include testing steps using SSH to connect to a Linux VM through the firewall, alongside the RDP/Windows example.
- When describing the creation of the VM, offer both Windows and Linux options, and clarify any differences in firewall rules (e.g., port 22 for SSH).
- In the 'Test the firewall' section, provide Linux-specific connection instructions in addition to RDP.
- Ensure that all screenshots, code snippets, and portal steps are inclusive of both Windows and Linux scenarios.
