Summary
The documentation page focuses exclusively on using Power BI Desktop—a Windows-only application—for visualizing Azure NSG flow logs. All setup and usage instructions assume the reader is on Windows, with no mention of Linux-compatible visualization tools or alternatives. There are no examples or guidance for Linux users, and Windows tooling is presented as the default and only option for this scenario.
Recommendations
- Include instructions and examples for visualizing NSG flow logs using cross-platform or Linux-native tools (e.g., Kibana, Grafana, or open-source BI tools).
- Explicitly mention platform requirements for Power BI Desktop and suggest alternatives for Linux users.
- Provide parity in documentation by offering step-by-step guides for Linux users, such as using the Elastic Stack (as referenced in 'Next steps') or other open-source solutions.
- Add a comparison table of visualization options for different operating systems, highlighting feature parity and limitations.
