Summary
The documentation page exhibits a strong Windows bias. All command-line examples for certificate generation, export, and registry modification use PowerShell, with file paths and procedures tailored to Windows environments. Windows-specific tools and concepts (e.g., Registry Editor, HKLM registry paths, double-clicking .pfx files for installation) are used exclusively, with no Linux or cross-platform alternatives provided. While OpenSSL and mkcert are briefly mentioned as certificate generation options, no Linux or bash examples are given, and the step-by-step instructions always default to Windows/PowerShell. There is no guidance for Linux-based Azure Migrate appliances or for users operating in non-Windows environments.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Linux/bash command examples for certificate generation and export using OpenSSL or mkcert.
- Include instructions for installing certificates on Linux appliances (e.g., using openssl, update-ca-certificates, or keytool).
- Document how to configure appliance settings on Linux, including where to store certificate files and how to update configuration (since registry editing is Windows-specific).
- Clarify which steps are Windows-only and provide cross-platform alternatives where possible.
- Ensure screenshots and file paths are not exclusively Windows-centric; include Linux file system examples.
- Explicitly state platform requirements and support for Azure Migrate appliance (Windows vs. Linux) at the beginning of the documentation.
